Who is Tai Tzu Ying?

Tai Tzu Ying was born on June 20, 1996 in Kaohsiung, Taiwan. When Tai was in primary school she started playing badminton through her father. He was a firefighter and director of the badminton committee. In the 6th grade she played a real tournament for the first time and that was the national ranking tournament. Here she immediately won the title in the second division, which also earned her the right to participate in the 1st division. At the time, she was the youngest player ever to compete in the first division!

Tai Tzu Ying was 11 years old in 2007 when she made her at the Vietnam International badminton tournament. Two years later she won the silver medal in the Asian Junior Championship. At the age of 15, Tai showed her real potential by securing second place at senior level at the Vietnam Open Grand Prix tournament.

In the summer of 2012, Tai was the second woman ever to play for Taiwan at the Summer Olympics in London. Only 18 years old and seeded 13th, she managed to reach the last 16 players of the tournament when she was beaten by the later winner Li Xuerui.

Badminton materials Tai Tzu Ying

Badminton racket

Especially for and together with Tai Tzu Ying her sponsor Victor has developed the Victor Thruster F Claw. It is a badminton racket for the attacking player who likes to combine control and power. The special thing about this racket is the narrower racket head, making it an even more aerodynamic and faster racket.

String

At KW FLEX badminton shop you can choose your Victor Thruster F C strung with your favorite string. Tai himself plays with the Victor Vbs-66 string, which provides extra bounce and control.

Badminton shoes

Tai has been playing on the Victor P9200 shoes for a while, but since last year she has her own Crown collection and therefore her own badminton shoes. You can still buy the Victor P 9200 II C in a few sizes from us, but gone = gone.

The shoe is equipped with LSS technology for extra stability during explosive rallies and the Neo Duplex, Energymax 3.0 and Light Resilient EVA layer create the right cushioning and dynamics in the shoe.

Badminton bag

There are several Victor badminton bags that Tai uses, but in most cases it is the Victor BR 9308 Black / Gold or Victor BR 9308 Blue / Orange. Both are large 3-compartment badminton bags, in which all her belongings can be stored.
