Every time I am not playing, I am training harder to keep myself fit.
Lin Dan -
It is for me to realise my value and put in the effort to win big tournaments.
Lin Dan
-
Win or lose, I believe in giving my best and that is what I always do.
Lin Dan -
The gold medals from world championships and National Games prove the efficiency of my daily training.
Lin Dan -
Before I turned 30, through a lot of hard work and support, I won many badminton titles. But after turning 30, Lin Dan should change that mindset and start in a new direction and do things that are more meaningful.
Lin Dan -
I don't need to prove myself through competition anymore.
Lin Dan -
I hope to play well and get better and better.
Lin Dan -
I have never considered any player as my competitor; each one of them is good and talented, and my job is to beat them.
Lin Dan
-
I have worked very hard to achieve this. If others also work hard, they can also achieve as much.
Lin Dan -
Lee Chong Wei is no doubt the best men's singles opponent I've played, and this gives me extra motivation to raise my game each time I play against him.
Lin Dan -
Success is not judged by just success in a particular championship.
Lin Dan -
If you play a match, then you got to give it all to beat the opponent; there is nothing like playing against a great or a non-great player. I treat them all as opponents and aim to beat them.
Lin Dan -
Of course every player wants to go from good to better, but one should not be obsessed with it.
Lin Dan -
When I decided to come back, I wanted to prove to the rest of the world I'm still the best.
Lin Dan
-
Lee is such a brilliant rival. I treasure the opportunities we have to play each other.
Lin Dan -
I am no genius; I just worked hard like my other teammates, and I believe all my teammates can win the title as they work hard, too.
Lin Dan -
I'm no longer young, but I still enjoy the competition and the feeling of that.
Lin Dan -
I am training 8-9 hours a day and will give my best shot for Rio.
Lin Dan -
Many people, including those from the BWF, don't really understand what the main problems in badminton are and what it most needs because many officials are not competitors.
Lin Dan -
It should not all be about badminton.
Lin Dan
-
I want to enjoy the life.
Lin Dan -
I have admired Taufik Hidayat for being exceptionally talented and Hendrawan for being a great player only because of his hard work and dedication. I have always looked up to them as players.
Lin Dan -
I love badminton, and representing China is an honour for me.
Lin Dan -
It is our responsibility, but not burden, to be champions.
