We start with the badminton Korea Open Super Series 2011...

Datuk Lee Chong Wei fails to win championship in the badminton South Korea Open 2011 after beaten by his "archenemy" Lin Dan in the final. Lin Dan was dominating the first set through point 21-19. However, Chong Wei manage to tame his opponent in the second set by 14-21. In the third set, both play aggressively to further their point and they perform such a very good badminton. Chasing points by one another at last,it was a bad luck day for Datuk Lee Chong Wei as Lin Dan took 5 consecutive points and won for the title. The victorious Lin Dan bagged US$90,000 (RM275,000) as the champion while the runner-up earned US$45,600 (RM139,000).

"People clamoring that Lin Dan is genius in badminton sport that's why he is unbeaten, but for me, genius is not something that you can take it as a reason. He just well trained physically and with the strategy that cope with the match".-Dean Winchester..:P

This year there is no Rafael Nadal and Roger Federer in the final Australian Open 2011. Both of them failed to beat their opponents to collect the Grand Slam championship title. Nadal was ruled out due to injury while Roger Federer was defeated due to outstanding performance by the Serbian Novak Djokovik.

Final between seeded no. 5 and no. 3 was quite exciting match. They show the audiences the great tennis match. But Djokovic which had dedicated his life to sport lately, really bring an impact in his sport. Despite the first two games taking nearly 20 minutes, Murray was never really in the clash with Djokovic running away with proceedings after taking a nervy opening set.

Djokovic was clearly the more settled of the two players right from the start, powering through a love service hold before enjoying a handful of break points as early as the second game.

Djokovic served up a third helping of Grand Slam agony for Briton Murray, 23, who lost last year's final in straight sets to Roger Federer and was also thrashed by the Swiss in the 2008 US Open final. With Britain's 75-year wait for a men's Grand Slam champion prolonged, Djokovic suggested his friend and occasional practice partner Murray could be in for more pain.

He admits "big mental struggle" was paid-off which climbing him to be the 2011 Grand Slam Australian Open. He said the victory is not just for himself but for the country Serbia.

AFC Asian Cup Qatar 2011

Guess who's the winner in this competition....jeng...jeng..jeng..the "Blue Samurai"..yahaaaa..

awek cun..haha

Samurai warrior never say die. The flame of spirit to win never extinguish. That is Japan. huhu. They really dominated the Asian games especially in football. In the final the met with the Aussie which had been anticipated to win the title. They brought the great treat at the first half. Almost scored by Tim Cahill header but Japan denies it. The match dragged till the extra time. The Blue Samurai made an attack at the left side by his winger Nagatomo and cross with a curly pass for Lee to volley the ball to the net. It was shocked for the Aussie and they fail to fight back till the end. The match end 1-0. Well done Japan. :-)
