Almost every tournament I watch, the winners are always Asians,most of the time China. They are so good at producing great badminton players. The only non-Asian country that is close of beating the Asians is Denmark or maybe England. I think badminton is an awesome sport and western countries should rise up to compete with the Asians. What do you think?

I really like the game. I used to play it in gym class. I have a cheap lil set from the dollar store in my shed however, I think it's easier to play inside the birdie is greatly effected by even the gentlest winds.

The issue with Western countries not being good at badminton is that the sport is not considered to be a major sport. The athletes are not star names, they are not millionaires. In order for a sport to be seen as "big time" in the West, there has to be an incentive and currently there really isn't.

Hello, I am a Chinese, for badminton, the Chinese people a more powerful and, of course, table tennis, is also very good at Chinese, but Chinese people have to learn from other countries, such as football, is more worse in China I hope our players can continue to work hard. To carch up with the pace of other countries.
