Produktbeschreibung

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Yao Ximing (born 1956) is a former badminton player from China and current coach at the Vancouver Racquet Club in Vancouver, B.C., Canada. A doubles specialist, Yao and partner Sun Zhian captured the men''s doubles title at the 1979 World Championships in Hangzhou run by the short-lived World Badminton Federation, a China-led organization then in competition with the older International Badminton Federation. When the political complaints against the International Badminton Federation were resolved, Yao and Sun won men''s doubles at the 1981 World Games in Santa Clara, California, the first major IBF sanctioned tournament in which China''s players participated. In 1982 Yao and Sun helped China wrest the coveted Thomas Cup (men''s world team trophy) from Indonesia, by defeating Indonesia''s Kartono and Heryanto and thus gaining the critical fifth point in a best of nine match series.
