My favourite badminton player is Lin Dan of China. He has won several awards in badminton. He was born on 14th October, 1983. He is 33 years old. He has made a record by winning the Olympic men’s singles title twice consecutively and he is the first man to win the men’s singles title twice.
In the Summer Olympics of 2008 and 2012 Lin Dan beat Lee Chong Wei of Malaysia in the finals. He is the five time world champion and the six time All England champion. He has won 64 individual career titles. He is also considered as a legend of badminton by Yonex and the Badminton World Federation. I like to become a badminton player like him.
