World No 1 badminton player Lee Chong Wei is a big hit in Guangzhou, and coach Misbun Sidek welcomes the overwhelming attention on his charge.
In fact, Sidek is hoping that the extra spotlight will fan the fire in Lee to raise his game at the Asian Games.
It'll be an achievement for Lee to reach the final as his previous best was winning a bronze medal at the 2006 Doha Games.
Yesterday, a large group of journalists from China turned up for the Malaysian team's first training session at Tianhe Gymnasium to interview Lee.
The 28-year-old Malaysian ace duly entertained them after going through a solid one-hour workout.
