Badminton at the Olympics

Unlike other net sports, badminton uses a shuttlecock instead of a ball. This is shaped like an open cone, and is made up of goose feathers embedded in a round cork base. The speed at which this projectile moves is greater than in any other racquet sport.

Badminton became an official sport at the 1992 Barcelona Olympic Games. The competition in Tokyo 2020 features the categories of singles for men and women, pairs for men and women and mixed pairs.

Badminton at Tokyo 2021 Olympic Games

The People’s Republic of China has long enjoyed a wealth of talented badminton athletes. This country has won 18 gold medals, more than any other country. In London 2012, the People’s Republic of China won all five titles at stake.

The Republic of Korea, Malaysia, Indonesia (where badminton is the national sport), and Denmark are also traditionally strong competitors, although dominance in the sport has changed significantly in recent years: Japan has emerged as a powerhouse, while players from countries or regions like China Taipei; Hong Kong, China; Thailand and India can also be found at the top of the rankings.

In the men’s singles, Kento Momota (JPN) has dominated for the last three years. His main rivals are Shi Yu Qi (CHN), Anthony Ginting (IDN), Viktor Axelsen (DEN) and Anders Antonsen (DEN). In the women’s singles, Chen Yu Fei (CHN) has emerged as the dominator of the world scene in recent times, closely followed by Tai Tzu Ying (TPE). Others, like Carolina Marin (ESP), Akane Yamaguchi, Nozomi Okuhara (JPN), Ratchanok Intanon (THA) and Pusarla V Sindhu (IND), are also strong contenders.

The People’s Republic of China, Indonesia, Korea and Japan are the strongest teams in doubles. The period after Rio 2016 saw the retirement of many high-level players. Tokyo 2020 will thus see many young couples in action.
