PETALING JAYA: Will there ever be a rivalry quite like Lin Dan and Lee Chong Wei’s in the All-England?
From 2004-2018, either or both Lin Dan and Lee Chong Wei contested in 14 of the 15 finals of the world’s oldest badminton tournament.
For now, Viktor Axelsen of Denmark seems to be more consistent than the rest of the field in the men’s singles.It will be a bore if one player continues to dominate but some say it will also create excitement as others are using the 29-year-old Dane as the benchmark and will go all out for his scalp. After all, age is also catching up on Axelsen in the physically demanding game.
“I don’t see any two players dominating the All-England now the way Chong Wei and Lin Dan did during their playing days,” he said.“There are several other rising stars like Japan’s Kodai Naraoka, Kunlavut and India’s Lakshya Sen, who are trying to challenge him but they still lack consistency.
