Zheng Siwei to Reduce Participation in International Competitions, Will Only Compete in the World Tour Finals This Year

After “clocking out” at the Paris Olympics, Zheng Siwei and Wang Chang’s self-made MV “Confession to Badminton” went viral on social media. Zheng Siwei’s activities outside of badminton have also garnered significant attention.

Netizens jokingly commented on his singing and badminton skills. Zheng Siwei laughed, acknowledging his badminton skills but saying his singing is just for fun. It is known that Zheng Siwei has a good relationship with Hong Kong singer Hacken Lee, and they often interact online. After he finished as a runner-up in the Tokyo Olympics, Hacken Lee even traveled to Hangzhou to comfort the “Zheng-Huang” duo. On August 29, Zheng Siwei visited Hong Kong with the Mainland Chinese Olympic delegation from the Paris Olympics.

Zheng Siwei is the first Paris Olympic champion to return to Wenzhou. He remarked that while Wenzhou athletes won two silver medals at the Tokyo Olympics, this time they took home three golds, two silvers, and one bronze, saying, “Wenzhou athletes are incredibly impressive!”

Discussing the future goals of the “Zheng-Huang” duo after achieving the Grand Slam, Zheng Siwei told reporters that his next major competition will be the 2024 BWF World Tour Finals in Hangzhou at the end of this year. He also confirmed participation in next year’s National Games, saying, “That’s all I can reveal for now.” As for the Los Angeles Olympics, it remains uncertain.

Zheng Siwei also discussed his future career path, revealing plans to gradually reduce his participation in international competitions, with the 2024 BWF World Tour Finals being the only event he will compete in this year.
