It is amazing yet so true  about top notched sports stars... 
There is always a time when they're the undisputed stars...

They'll be top seeded in all the major tournaments they entered in...
And unsurprisingly and unceasingly they  perform to cement their top billing....

At such periods in time, their reign is sublime and they're the ones to beat...
Probably their aura of being top seeds quelled the fight out of many a lower seed..

For a champion, long hours and  back breaking training sessions are unseen ......
And a professional teamwork are in place to ensure such perennial dominance...

But the fact remains, after a period of unceasing dominance....
All champions, whatever their game, will fade into the distant horizon...

Losing was never an option and his invincibility was an aura lesser players yield pronto...

After an unfortunate enforced lay off from badminton due to suspected  drug misuse....
Therein lies several episodes of labourous climb back into the world rankings...

These days yesteryear champions  are unceremoniously chucked out of rankings...
Each time an eager young turk charges into the finals and resets the ensuing rankings...
