There’s no better way to conclude a career than by winning Olympic gold—Lee Yang achieved this feat not once, but twice. His partnership with Wang Chi-Lin stands out in badminton history, especially given their surprising rise to glory despite not winning a title in the preceding year.
Their Olympic journey was filled with remarkable moments, culminating in a final that may go down as one of the greatest ever. After facing challenges in their partnership post-Tokyo 2020, the duo overcame fitness struggles to prevail in nail-biting matches at the Olympics.
In the gold medal match at Paris 2024, Lee Yang showcased exceptional talent and composure, steering the pair through the ups and downs of the competition. Both players had humble beginnings, but their complementary skills flourished when they teamed up in 2018, marking the start of a successful partnership.
After a rocky path through inconsistent performances, the duo rediscovered their winning formula in Paris, overcoming doubts and fierce competition to reclaim the gold. “I’m happy that, with such tough competition, we still managed to win the gold medal,” said Lee Yang, reflecting on their remarkable journey.
