LONDON - World and Olympic champion Lin Dan of China makes a belated seasonal bow in Birmingham on Wednesday at the 100th All-England Championships, the oldest and most prestigious tournament in world badminton.
The titleholder, nicknamed 'Super Dan' for his superb attaking ability, skipped the first two Super Series events this year in South Korea and Malaysia after a tiring 2009 but is keen to get back on track.
The Chinese, seeking his fifth men's singles All-England title in seven years, finds himself seeded two behind world No 1 Lee Chong Wei of Malaysia.
