Worlds a stepping stone for 'Super Dan'

China's Lin already looking ahead to the London Olympic Games

LONDON - Even though Olympic champion Lin Dan made an impressive start to the world championships here on Tuesday, he still sees the coming week as a preparation for the defence of his title at the Games next year.

"I don't consider too much about the result (of this tournament)," Lin commented, despite a sparkling 21-11, 21-10 first round win over Kestutis Navickas, the world No 40 from Lithuania.
