In the last three days, I only ate, slept and trained: Lee Chong Wei

World No 1 Lee Chong Wei's words after his singles win over Awadhe Warriors' RMV Guru Saidutt on Thursday summed up the hard work put in by most shuttlers in the inaugural Indian Badminton League.

“Over the last three days I only ate, slept and practiced hard. I have played against Guru a lot of times in international events and have commended his game. Today, was clearly not one of his best performances. The shuttle speed was also much better which helped me win the match in 2 sets,” said Chong Wei, who was obviously disappointed though that his team eventually went down 2-3 to the Awadhe Warriors in the second semi-final.
