Asian powers tighten grip on day two


LONDON (Reuters) - Asia's badminton powers flexed their muscles on day two of the London Games tournament on Sunday, as Britain's strongest medal hopes tearfully crashed out of contention.

China's world number three Chen Long survived an enthralling tussle with Thailand's Boonsak Ponsana in the men's singles, coming back from 15-10 down in the second set to win 21-12 21-17 and advance to the knockout rounds at Wembley Arena.
