I was a big fan of Lee Yong Dae - Jung Jae Sung. It seems like it was ages ago now. I sadly forgot about Sung and now all of a sudden I'm shocked to hear he passed away.

What a loss to #Badminton world. #JungJaeSung (35), former South Korean doubles ace and 2-time All-England MD champion dies of heart attack. He has won 18 Super Series titles, partnering Lee Yong Dae in MD. No other pair in history has won as many. pic.twitter.com/cmWYFEy9nM
