Hello, Is somebody know when badminton profis have started to play badminton? It would be very interessting to know... Kind regards, Tom
I dont know exactly, but I heard rumours that chen hong didnt start until he was 12, and han jian not until 16. Not sure though.
and heard Wan Wah started at the age of 6..... What about the Sidek family??? Surely from young age or?
It's not really about the age they start at, it's about how much time they spent training and practicing
Is that website still accessible??? Last time I visit there one or two weeks after the Olympics ends and it already became the paralympic homepage
the bio said he started playing at 10....here's the link: http://www.athens2004.com/en/ParticipantsAthletes/newParticipants?pid=368029
i think it is little difference if u started at younger age..i would say 14 or under... i don't think anyone started at age 17..can still be a pro
to be an ordinary pro, one needs commitment and correct techniques from day one; to be a top pro, one needs talent
