When he lost the first set, our hearts dropped.
When he won the second set, our hearts raced.
When Lin Dan gained back 4 straight points to tie at 20-20, our hearts stopped.
When he made that final smash to win 22-20, our hearts soared.
Tahniah Datuk. You brought Malaysians together like no one else can.
