He is a two-time Olympic champion, five-time world champion, and five-time All England champion. Considered by many to be the greatest singles player of all time,〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=https://ibadmintonstore.com/Badminton-Latest-News/Lin-Dan--The-Greatest-Ever-By-Richard-Eaton.aspx )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.dnaindia.com/sport/report_is-lin-dan-the-greatest-ever_1282953 )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Lin Dan the greatest, says record-breaking Gade )〕 by the age of 28 Lin had completed the "Super Grand Slam", having won all nine major titles in the badminton world: Olympic Games, World Championships, World Cup, Thomas Cup, Sudirman Cup, Super Series Masters Finals, All England Open, Asian Games, and Asian Championships, becoming the first and only player to achieve this feat. He also became the first men's singles player to retain the Olympic gold medal by winning in 2008 and defending his title in 2012.〔 In 2004, Lin was dubbed "Super Dan" by opponent Peter Gade after winning the All England Open final, and the nickname has since been widely used by his fans as well as the media to refer to him, in recognition of his achievements. ==Personal life== At a young age, Lin was encouraged to learn to play the piano by his parents, but chose to play badminton instead. Having started his training at the age of five, he was scouted by the People's Liberation Army Sports Team after winning the National Junior Championships aged twelve, and was enlisted into the Chinese National Badminton Team in 2001, when he was 18.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.ci123.com/article.php/22419 )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://sports.cctv.com/xiuxian/special/lining/20090922/102147.shtml )〕 Lin has been in a relationship with Xie Xingfang, herself a former world champion, since 2003. They were quietly engaged on December 13, 2010 in Haizhu, Guangzhou. Xie initially denied but later acknowledged romantic involvement with Lin, who reacted angrily at the public exposure of their relationship, citing reasons of personal privacy. The two were married on September 23, 2012 and the wedding ceremony was held at the Beijing University of Technology. Lin had five tattoos visible during the 2012 Summer Olympics. His upper left arm has a Christian cross, representing his love for his Christian grandmother. Five stars on the lower left arm signify the Grand Slam he has won. The tattoo on his right upper arm reads "until the end of world" which is the English name of the song "世界が終るまでは…" (by Wands) out of his favourite anime Slam Dunk. The double "F" lettering on the lower part of his right arm stands for "Fang Fang", his nickname for his wife Xie Xingfang, and his initials "LD" are tattoed on the back of his neck. These tattoos have been the subject of controversy due to his military and religious status.〔 On October 17, 2012, he became the first active Chinese badminton player to accept a master's degree, which was presented at Huaqiao University. His autobiography, ''Until the End of the World'', was published after he successfully defended his Olympic title at the London 2012 Olympics. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Lin Dan」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
