Olympic Moments

15 August 2008(Friday)

I am having my study break now till the 18 August. Today, I spent my afternoon watching the channel 5 Beijing Olympic 2008, Table Tennis( Women's Team Semi-Final: Singapore Vs South Korea). It was very exciting because if Singapore team won this match, they will be able to proceed to the finals, let alone earning a sliver or gold medal for Singapore. This will be the very first Olympic medal that Singapore will win since 48 years ago.

The Semi-match 1 will be Feng T.W( Singapore) VS Dang Y.S( S.Korea)
Game 1 - 11 vs 5
Game 2 - 11 vs 5
Game 3 - 11 vs 2

The Semi-match 2 will be Li Jia Wei( Singapore) VS Kim K.A( S.Korea)
Game 1 - 11 vs 5
Game 2 - 8 vs 11
Game 3 - 11 vs 9
Game 4 - 6 vs 11
Game 5 - 9 vs 11

Li Jia Wei has done a lot of heavy spinning which causes her to lose a lot of marks, while Kim K.A generally uses 90% of the balls to defence and 10% of the balls to attack.

The Semi-match 3 will be Li Jia Wei and Wang Yue Gu( Singapore) VS Kim K.A and Park M.Y( S.Korea)
Game 1 - 11 vs 7
Game 2 - 11 vs 6
Game 3 - 11 vs 9

In the 3rd game, Singapore's team continously lose 4 points. This makes the audience have cold sweats( i mean scared), but they eventually catch up and turn the tables over.

The Semi-match 4 will be Wang Yue Gu( Singapore) VS Dong Y.S( S.Korea)
Game 1 - 9 vs 11
Game 2 - 12 vs 14
Game 3 - 9 vs 11

In the 2nd game, they continue to compete until the 5th game point, i had to admire Wang Yue Gu for her perservance.

The Semi-match 5 will be Feng Tian Wei( Singapore) VS Park Mi Young( S.Korea)
Game 1 - 11 vs 7
Game 2 - 12 vs 10
Game 3 - vs 11
Game 4 - 11 vs 9

Singapore Team have to win at least 3 semi-final matches to proceed to the finals and they did ^.^ I am so happy and i will be cheering for them in the finals on channel 5 at 7.30pm. (if i am not wrong)

Later at night around 7.45pm, i went to church to celebrate the Feast of the Assumption with my cousins ^.^ I have a eventful day today.

I have to start studying hard for my tests today as there will be only 3 days left to the start of the purchasing management exam. Ganbatte!
