Badminton's Big4: Who Are They?
If I were to make comparisons to tennis, Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal, Novak Djokovic, and Andy Murray dominated the men's discipline more than 20 years with more than 60 grand slams titles combined. These people (image above) are the best to say, the dominators of men's badminton in the late 90s-10s.
[From left Peter Gade (DEN), Lee Chong Wei (MAS), Lin Dan (CHN), Taufik Hidayat (INA)]
These four were all former World No.1s and won a lot of major championships throughout their career, including gold medals in multiple games (Olympics, Asian, Commonwealth, etc.).
I. Taufik Hidayat (INA)
Taufik Hidayat had his break early in the industry as he won so much during the early part of his career. He became the world No.1 when he was only 19 after winning All England, Malaysia Open, Indonesia Open, and Asian Championships all in one year. He then later obtained his first Olympic gold at the 2004 Athens Olympics. He also won the World Championships after defeating Lin Dan in the final, and that was the only time when he was a world champion. He also won a BWF World Super Series Premier (in tennis jargon; they are like a Grand Slam) at the 2010 French Open against Denmark's Joachim Persson. In the past, he lost to the other 3 figures above multiple times in the final, and the other 2 who defeated him in the final were China's Bao Chunlai and Denmark's Jan O. Jorgensen. He also won 17 titles from the BWF Grand Prix (similar to 500 events) and multiple golds from Asian Games, SEA games, and Asian Championships. He won his home country's tournament (Indonesia Open) six times throughout his career and considered one of, if not the best, players from his country.
II. Lin Dan (CHN)
In order for me to summarise Lin Dan's career in a few paragraphs, I might need a better vocabulary on how to describe how exceptional of a player he is. He was nicknamed as the 'Super Dan' due to how impactful his influences in the sport. Everyone knows Lin Dan for his attacking game style and powerful shots. His game play can be described as explosive and very aggressive, making it hard for his opponents to seek his weaknesses during matches. He is also listed in the elite list of badminton players who 'completed' badminton by winning all of the nine major badminton titles during his career. They're Olympic Games, World Championships, World Cup, Thomas Cup/Uber Cup, Sudirman Cup, Year-End Finals (or BWF Tour Finals), All England Open, Asian Games, and Asian Championships.
If I were to list his entire achievement, we would be here for another week, and that shows how much of a great player he was. He became the first Men's Singles player to be able to defend his Olympic Gold (2008 Beijing and 2012 London) by defeating his long-time rival, Lee Chong Wei, in both finals. Later this year, Viktor Axelsen also became only the second male player in history to repeat Lin Dan's two golds at the Olympics (2020 Tokyo & 2024 Paris).
In 2006, he held one of the best winning streak records of 34 matches won in a row. Some of his remarkable records that nobody has yet to share it with him are 6 gold medals from Thomas Cup, 5 gold medals from World Championships, 4/6 gold/final from Asia Championships, and 5 titles in Men's Singles at the China Open.
After retirement, Lin Dan and Lee Chong Wei received the Hall Of Fame award by BWF for his amazing career run and how his name reflected the sport.
III. Lee Chong Wei (MAS)
If one were to stop at least half of Lin Dan's domination, it was Lee Chong Wei. Their rivalry remained as the most popular rivalry in badminton, and they're often called the best rivalry ever existed in badminton. Chong Wei had a 199-weeks streak as the reigning World No.1 and a total of 349 weeks as WR1. He was the only Malaysian player to hold the WR1 position for more than a year.
Despite having a remarkable career, Chong Wei did not complete his badminton career as he fell short thrice in the Olympics. He is a three-times silver medalist, and it became one of the biggest what-ifs for his career if he were to be able to win an Olympic gold. He lost twice against Lin Dan and once against Chen Long.
However, he had one of the best seasons ever achieved by any badminton player in 2010. He won 9 titles and the tour finals in the same season, making it his best season throughout his career. On that year, he participated in 13 events, and he won 10 of them. His prime years as a badminton player were often talked as one of the best career achievements a badminton player could ever obtain; hence cemented his position as one of the best badminton players ever in the open era.
He held a clean record of 3 golds at the Commonwealth Games and 2 golds at the Asian Championships. Another notable achievement from Chong Wei was, despite having a losing H2H record against Lin Dan, he won 3 more titles than Lin Dan and ended his career with a total of 69 titles.
[I will talk about their famous rivalry in another post]
IV. Peter Gade (DEN)
Even with the Asian domination in badminton, Peter Gade fits in between these four just fine and carved his name deep in the history of the sport. He came close to winning against the other three in a lot of tournaments, but he has 4 superseries titles under his name. He has a clean record in every participation of European Championships, and that itself is not an easy achievement to put your name onto it. He started his career a little bit earlier compared to the rest of the three and retired the earliest among them. He was the world No.1 from 1998 until 2001, also winning his first All England title in 1999. He was the last European winner of All England before Viktor Axelsen wins another 2 in 2020 and 2021.

Denmark to donate $22 million to Brazil's Amazon Fund to fight deforestation
Denmark will donate 150 million Danish crowns ($21.9 million) to Brazil's Amazon Fund to fight deforestation, Danish Minister for Development Cooperation and Global Climate Policy, Dan Jorgensen, announced on Tuesday with his Brazilian counterpart.
Jorgensen and Brazil's Environment Minister Marina Silva said in a joint statement that climate change has an impact on forests, local communities and Indigenous peoples that need support to manage forests in sustainable way and promote trade in sustainably produced forest products.
The Amazon Fund was created in 2008 to raise donations to combat deforestation and promote preservation of the world's largest tropical rainforest, with Norway providing an initial $1 billion. Germany has contributed to the fund, and more recently Britain and the European Union, while the United States plans to contribute $500 million over five years.

Impacto da Ruptura Energética: Como o Fim dos Laços com a Rússia Reconfigurou a Europa
A decisão da União Europeia de cortar os laços energéticos com a Rússia trouxe consequências que desafiaram a estabilidade econômica e social do bloco, como revelou Dan Jorgensen, comissário europeu de Energia e Habitação, à mídia norte-americana. O esforço para se afastar dos combustíveis russos gerou impactos financeiros e estruturais significativos para a região. Nos últimos 20 meses, a UE…

The EU plans to end Russian fuel ties for good, European Commissioner for Energy and Housing Dan Jorgensen has told US media.
Let’s take a look at how abandoning Russian energy supplies has already ridden roughshod over the bloc.
EU countries had to pay €185 billion ($204 billion) extra on natural gas over the past 20 months after cutting themselves off from cheap Russian pipeline gas.
Household electricity prices increased in ten EU countries in the first half of 2024, compared with the first half of last year. The highest price tags were registered in Germany (€0.3951 per kilowatt-hour [KWh]), Ireland (€0.3736), Denmark (€0.37078) and the Czech Republic (€0.3381).
Last year saw average household electricity prices in 22 EU members increase to €28.9 ($30.3) per 100kWh – up from €25.3 ($26.5) per 100kWh for the same period in 2022. “These prices were the highest recorded by Eurostat,” per the statistical agency.
Europe’s benchmark natural gas prices surged last month to the highest since November 2023, increasing to €45.40 ($47.83) per MWh.
In 2023, Latvia and Romania saw the highest jumps in gas prices, jumping 139% and 134%, respectively. In total, price tags increased in 20 EU members at the time.
The average British household spent £1,000 ($1,202) on wholesale gas over the past 12 months - £800 ($1011) more than in a typical year.
In a sign of their “energy poverty”, the number of Europeans “unable to keep their homes adequately warm” has surged over the past several years, standing at 6.9%, 9.3% and 10.6% in 2021, 2022, and 2023, respectively. Information is based on estimates from Eurostat, the European Commission, OilPrice.com and the Energy and Climate Intelligence Unit non-profit organization.
