Malaysia Olympic Games Updates - 12th August 2008

Some latest updates of Olympics...

- Badminton
We only left Lee Chong Wei, Wong Mew Choo and Tan Boon Heong/Koo Kien Keat only.

Lee Chong Wei started our day well by beating Navickas Kestutis 21-5 21-7.
Then, Koo Kien Keat and Tan Boon Heong continued our good record by beating Ikeda Shintaro and Sakamota Shuichi 21-12 21-16, and hence avenge their loss to them previously.

Then, Wong Choong Hann showed his inconsistency. After beating Taufik Hidayat yesterday, today, he lost to Hsieh Yu-Hsing 21-14 17-21 18-21 from Chinese Taipei.

And then Choong Tan Fook and Lee Wan Wah further added our nation's misery by losing to Lee Jaejin and Hwang Jiman 22-20 13-21 16-21

- For Sailing, Kevin Lim got disqualified in 1st Race for Laser, and in 2nd race, he was ranked 24th out of about 45 sailors. He was initially ranked around 10th by 1st Mark, but slowly dropped back as race progressed. Hope Kevin can bounce back for remaining races.

Lets hope that the remaining group of our contingent would perform well.
