An easy gold for China's world champ Posted Sunday, August 17, 2008 6:46 AM ET
Lee Chong Wei of Malaysia BEIJING (AP) - China's Lin Dan has won the gold medal in men's singles at the Olympic badminton tournament, defeating Malaysia's Lee Chong Wei in straight sets.
Top-seeded Lin was in control from the outset Sunday and coasted to a 21-12, 21-8 win over the second-seeded Lee to give China its third gold medal in badminton.
Lin took an 11-1 lead in the second game with Lee's only point coming on an unforced error by Lin.
Lee was bidding for Malaysia's first gold medal in the Olympics but was no match for the top-ranked Lin, who won the match with a smash down the line that Lee returned into the net.
I think I found another "idol" today after going through his profile. In case you do not know who is Lin Dan's girl friend, she's Xie Xingfang.
