Chong Wei to be reunited with Lin Dan in KL

Lee Chong Wei will be reunited with his former on-court rival Lin Dan in Kuala Lumpur next week as part of The Legends’ Vision initiative by Yonex, where both badminton icons will introduce two new legends.

The Legends’ Vision current lineup boasts the likes of Lee, Lin as well as Peter Gade Christiansen, Taufik Hidayat and Lee Yong-dae who are the Danish, Indonesian and South Korean greats.

With the addition of two new legends, these seven icons will now share the vision of spreading the love and awareness of the sport worldwide.

Besides the two new icons announcement, fans will also be hoping to catch a glimpse of Lin when he is down in KL.

The last time the Chinese superstar was in town was when he got inducted into the BWF Hall Of Fame along with Lee in May last year.

The 40-year-old Lin in his acceptance speech later said there had never been a rivalry like his and the Malaysian legend.

The last Legends’ Vision initiative was held in Canada last year during which Lee, Gade Christiansen and Yong-dae made the long-haul journey to promote the sport in the cities of Toronto, Vancouver and Calgary.
