7. Fourth world title for 'Super Dan'
Several withdrawals could not gloss over another sublime year for "Super Dan". China's star shuttler, Lin Dan, pulled off an unparalleled feat in August by lifting his fourth World Championship trophy in Wembley Arena, the venue that will host the same competition at the 2012 Summer Olympics.
The "grand slam" badminton player won his second Asian Championships in April on a day that saw China sweep all five titles, and he also helped China to a fourth consecutive Sudirman Cup title in May.
He also completed a super "Grand Slam" after beating Chen Long in the final at the BWF World Superseries Finals on Dec 18.
