KUALA LUMPUR: Can Lin Dan of China win his seventh All-England title this year?
Based on his current form, it seems like a distant possibility - but one thing is for sure, the former world No. 1 singles player still commands respect from his peers and it will be no different when he begins his campaign at the Birmingham Arena on Wednesday.
“Lin Dan has not been winning titles like before but he has not given up - he keeps fighting. Others should emulate his attitude, ” said Choong Hann. “Something is still keeping him going - and I guess, that’s the same motivation that other coaches hope to see in their players. He singled out two-time world champion Kento Momota of Japan, Chou Tien-chen of Taiwan, Anthony Ginting of Indonesia, Viktor Axelsen of Denmark; and China’s Chen Long and Shi Yuqi.
