Sportsmanship

Sometimes, it is very hard to be a good sportsman. Knowing that you deserve the gold medal more than your opponent, and yet having to congratulate them when they win; win not only what belongs to you, but also your pride. Question marks will then start popping in your mind, thinking- how could this even happen? The only answer I can accept is, because of "pure unluckiness" that these things happen. Many ppl would say- oh it's because they had improve over the years and they deserve it. Maybe you can try to imagine, me beating Lin Dan in a badminton match. WOW! Impossible but I did it, by luck, or by chance? Or maybe he was badly injured somehow, or just some ridiculous reason that he lost. It seems like a victory, but in fact it's not. Defeating him is not victorious at all. Maybe it's a personal thing that I can't accept it if such things happen.

*Btw Lin Dan defeated Lee Chong Wei at the men's finals.

Do you feel proud beating Lin Dan?
