Lee Chong Wei Rules All England

LEE Chong Wei, as expected, is not satisfied with the All England title and will gun for more honours this year.

Chong Wei, who was greeted by Sports Minister Datuk Ahmad Shabery Cheek, officials from the National Sports Council (NSC), the national junior players from Bukit Jalil Sports School and fans on his arrival at Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA) yesterday, said the All England triumph was the big break he was looking for and now hopes it will pave the way for more titles in the majors.

Chong Wei is only the fifth Malaysian player to win the prestigious All England men's singles crown and the first since Hafiz Hashim's success in 2003.

While Hafiz has faded since his achievement, Chong Wei said Sunday's win has given him the confidence boost so vital ahead of the World Championships in Paris in August and the Asian Games in Guangzhou in November.

As Malaysians, we are proud of Lee Chong Wei but does it mean we are "strong" enough to take Thomas Cup back to us. With current performance of our badminton squad, are we able to defeat China and Indonesia in Thomas Cup 2010 coming this May? I hope we won't be too optimistic on this.

Dear readers, how high is the chance for Malaysian badminton squad to take back Thomas Cup 2010 coming this May? Please let me know in your comments.
