Music: If It Kills Me by Jason Mraz

Its a proud time for Malaysians.
Lee Chong Wei was recently announced as the no 1 player in the world.
2 no 1 players in the world from our country!
Although squash and badminton are not popular sports like football or tennis etc.
Its still an achievement that we should all be proud of.
Yeah, my patriotism is kicking in a little late, with merdeka celebrations being a week old already.

Nadal succumbed to Murray in the US Open semis.
Andy Murray was phenomenal.
Yeah Nadal was awesome and all, but Murray came out the better player this time round.
He had a game plan and tactics to beat Nadal and executed them well.
Like standing far behind the baseline to neutralize Nadal's big serves which are getting more powerful than ever..
And changing the pace and tempo of the match to disrupt Nadal's rhythm..
You could also see how Murray out do Nadal during long rallies..
At the end of those rallies Nadal would be heaving and Murray looked like he just came back from a stroll in the park.
I've always liked and supported Murray...
Like how I like and support Nick Heidfeld.
He may look timid but after observing his face and facial expressions, my impression is that he's quiet and smart and wise and looks like he reads a lot, and I also got this vibe that does have a temper and always speaks his mind and do what he wants.
hahaha cam bagus je aku ni nak interpret org.
Anyway, I'm so rooting for him against Federer.
I'm all for Fedex to break Sampras' records and all, but Murray still gets my support.

As for last nights GP at Spa Franchorchamps..
Kimi drove impeccably until the last 2 laps.
He almost silenced his critics for being accused of lacking motivation, but if only he finished the race, he led the whole thing! up till lap 42 that is.
I've never once doubted his motivation, but the F1 media are an inquisitive lot and always come up with unfounded rumors, most of the time blatantly stupid.
But still, if things doesn't improve and luck doesn't come knocking on Kimi's door, he;s gonna have a hard time trying to win the championship.
If Hamilton and Massa keeps their momentum as it is, Kimi can kiss the driver's title goodbye.
