#2 Lee Chong Wei - 408 kmph
Considered one of the greatest to have stepped onto a badminton court, Lee Chong Wei has given his fans many memories to cherish. Despite never winning a World Championship or an Olympic gold, the Malaysian's legacy is unmatched.
His image, however, was tarnished in 2014 when he was convicted of doping. The 34-year-old had to miss several months of action, suffering a hit in rankings and match practice. Making a comeback in 2015, Chong Wei was looking to prove himself. He was unseeded at the 2015 Hong Kong Open.
The three-time Olympics silver medalist was determined to prove himself, however, and went on to win the tournament. During this run, he produced one of his iconic smashes, hitting the shuttle at 408 kmph.
