Five-time world champion and two-time Olympics gold medallist Lin Dan has officially announced his retirement today (Saturday, 4th July).

Nicknamed “Super Dan” by fans around the world, the 36-year-old Chinese athlete said that it was time to hang up his hang up his racquet after spending two decades with the national team.

“From 2000 to 2020, after 20 years, I have to say goodbye to the national team. It is very difficult to speak it out,” the left-handed shuttler wrote on Weibo. “My physical capabilities and injuries won’t let me fight with my teammates anymore.”

According to the Chinese Badminton Association, the beloved badminton superstar submitted his formal retirement letter just a couple days ago. That being said, Lin Dan – who scored golds at the 2008 Beijing and 2012 London Games – won’t be competing in the next Olympics in Tokyo (which has been postponed to July 2021).

Tributes have been pouring in left and right. One of them was his great rival and friend, Lee Chong Wei. “Please believe that the laughter, tears and all the promises are unforgettable diary entries,” the 37-year-old Malaysian wrote on Weibo. “Proud of you,” he added.

He also dedicated a heartfelt tribute below:
