Olympic Badminton Champion Huang To Retire From Chinese National Team
Badminton World Federation: Badminton Olympic champion Huang Yaqiong announced on social media on Wednesday that she has submitted her resignation to the Chinese national team and officially bid farewell to her national team career. "I've been greeted with countless encouragements from everyone, hoping that I could continue my career. But actually, since the run-up for the Paris Olympics, I've already regarded the Paris Olympics as my last one," Huang wrote in her post.
"Although based on my current form, I still possess the physical ability to compete, the accumulated injuries over the years combined with the increasing age have made me lack the confidence to continue shouldering the mission of winning glory for the country and maintaining the form as an elite athlete," she said.
After finishing runners-up at the Tokyo Olympics three years ago, Huang and her partner Zheng Siwei won mixed doubles gold at the Paris Olympics, finishing the tournament with a 6-0 record without dropping a set in the process, reports Xinhua.
