The All England Badminton Championships 2007 ended last night with China sweeping 4 of the 5 titles at stake but we sneaking in and winning the one that probably mattered to them most. The event China are weakest at, the Men's doubles. Kien Keat and Boon Heong was fantastic throughout the match. Remembered my prediction yesterday? It was two straight sets. I do not know why but this pair does not give me the jitters like other pairs. They do not give me the feeling that they will choke on the big stage. Only 5 tournaments together and they won 3 of them All highly charged and world class field tournaments. 2 Super Series and the Asian Games. What would you expect from a partnership of 6 months? It is truly fantastic.
I thinked I have posted something about Rexy wanting to quit during the Asian Games after the team event debacle. Take a bow, Rexy! You have made our rising stars champions! We have too many rising stars but not many make the grade as consistent champions. Malaysian sports is famous for it's athletes being consistently inconsistent. You have unearth two gems who love the sport and play with passion. I thank you and salute you for that! Teach these boys humility as they become better and more succesful in the game. If they would finish their careers with half the honours you won as a player, I am sure many Malaysians will be very happy.
Come on, Kien Keat and Boon Heong! Let's have our first World Champions in August! Malaysia Boleh! By the way, I may go all the way to KL to see your shaven head, Kien Keat!
Congratulations! You guys deserve it!
