Happy birthday Lee Chong Wei.

RIO DE JANEIRO: Next year's World Championships will be Datuk Lee Chong Wei's final call in the international stage as he wants to retire with the elusive world title after missing the Olympics gold medal.  

Having qualified four times in the finals at the World Championships, the 33-year-old shuttler has yet to claim the title as a world champion and next year's edition will be his swansong for his illustrious career.
