Chong Wei touched by show of support

SEPANG: Lee Chong Wei returned home yesterday with a heavy heart after his failure to nail the first gold medal for Malaysia in the Olympics.

But getting a hero’s welcome at the Kuala Lumpur International Aiport (KLIA) brought back the smile on his face. About 300 people with huge congratulatory banners greeted Chong Wei and the Malaysian badminton team at the arrival hall to the beat of the kompang and thunderous applause.[......]

Of course, he returned home with heavy heart. BUT, just put yourself in his shoes. Can you mange to handle yourself when facing such huge pressure from the audience, supporters, 27 million people’s hope?

He was not doing well in that game, I bet, he didn’t want it too.
