When you think of badminton, you may think of the jumping figures, the sweat and the tense and rhythmic collision of the racket. But today, let's not talk about technology, not about achievements, let's talk about those "ball kings" in the badminton world. Don't get me wrong, it's not lace news, it's Tawfik's philosophy on the pitch.
Now, in the badminton world, there are really only a handful of people who can be called the "king of the ball". According to Tawfik, there are only four of them. It's not that I'm talkative, it's not that he's boasting, but to be honest, Tawfik himself must be on this list. So, who else is there besides him? Lin Dan, Ji Xingpeng, Chen Long, each of them is a heavyweight in the feather world.
Let's talk about Lin Dan, the name is almost synonymous with badminton. His talent and record, that's really nothing to say. But did you know that under the old tournament system, tournaments that were only held every two years were much more difficult to maintain for ten years. Lin Dan has done it, which is not only a good technique, but also a spiritual symbol.
When it comes to Ji Xingpeng, many people may be confused. He is not a household name like Lin Dan, but his success in a major tournament like the Olympics is enough to prove that his strength should not be underestimated. And Chen Long, although his performance in the team competition is mediocre, his performance in the singles court can definitely impress you.
Everyone on this list is unique. Tawfik emphasized that at their level, the competition is not only about technology and achievement, but also about whether you have that kind of unique skill and delicate skills.
Speaking of which, I have to mention some changes in the badminton world. From the old four kings of Lin Shuijing and Frost's generation, to the first four kings of Lin Dan and Taufik's generation, and then to the new four kings who have not yet been fully collected, the history of badminton is a history of inheritance and change. Each generation of the king is not only the inheritance of technology, but also the change of the atmosphere of the badminton world.
And Chinese badminton has always had a leader since the Thomas Cup. Although veterans like Han Jian and Luan Jin failed to become kings, their contributions are also indelible.
In the final analysis, badminton is really not simple. As Tawfik said, to be able to stand in the position of the king of the ball, it is not only technical and physical strength, but also more mental and tactical. Every game is not only a contest between opponents, but also a dialogue with one's own heart.
Now, I would like to ask you, if you were to choose the badminton champion, what would it be, whether it was based on performance, or technique, or that unique love and contribution to badminton? Let's continue this discussion in the comment section. After all, the king of the ball in everyone's heart is unique.
