Who are the greatest badminton players ever? This guide covers the legends — Lin Dan, Lee Chong Wei, Susi Susanti, Gao Ling, Taufik Hidayat, Carolina Marín, Viktor Axelsen and P.V.

Every stat is checked against BWF and Olympic records, with an honest take on why the GOAT debate isn't as close as people think.
