Vocab 1: What new words I learn from the news today?

Hi folks!

Here's my daily reading ritual and vocabulary built-up session.

Words I learn today:
Yesterday, Chong Wei showed who was the real boss on the court when he defeated his nemesis, Lin Dan of China, 21-17, 21-17 in a highly-charged 52-minute final to retain the All-England title.

nem·e·sis  (nm-ss)n. pl. nem·e·ses
Retributive justice in its execution or outcome.


Chinese literal translation:

Happy Learning....


Cheers!
