If there is anyone who is the most controversial in badminton, it must be Li Yongbo, head coach of Guoyu. The China Badminton Team was ordered at the critical moment, leading generation after generation of athletes to create more than 20 years of glory. After teaching for 23 years, he has trained nearly 100 world-class champions, among which Dānlín and Fu Haifeng are outstanding representatives. This is Li Yongbo's achievement, and I don't think anyone in badminton can match it. But at the same time, because of his personality, Li Yongbo was also criticized. Hidden rules? 、? Let the target? 、? Li Na incident? 、? Distinguish? Waiting is a stain that Li Yongbo can never erase.
Li Yongbo's amazing achievements
Li Yongbo won nine Sudirman Cups, eight Uber Cups and five Thomas Cups, all two World Championships and six Olympic Games 18 gold medals. This is a record set by him in his 23 years as a coach. More than 80 world-class badminton champions such as Ji Xinpeng, Fu Haifeng and Li have been trained, which is also the achievement of Li Yongbo during his coaching. Li Yongbo never hides his ambition? Cultivate one hundred world champions.
Ambitious Li Yongbo led the China badminton team to glory step by step. As the record is constantly refreshed, the status and money brought by honor are also rising. If I can keep my heart, I think maybe the stigma that spread later will not exist. However, the prestigious Li Yongbo has changed. His ambition is no longer badminton, but the higher status and money brought by badminton.
I'm worried about fame and fortune
In the first decade, we saw a Li Yongbo who could give up everything for badminton, while in the second decade, we saw a Li Yongbo who collected everything with badminton. As early as a few years ago, news broke that in order to collect money, Li Yongbo used? Daipei? Nominally selling the qualification of the national team and giving the business of the badminton team to relatives. In order to be famous, Li Yongbo made many star friends, and he was even more extravagant in the assets of the national team.
Recent situation in Li Yongbo
Li Yongbo, the former national badminton gold medal coach, has been devoted to the promotion of badminton since he stepped down as the head coach of China badminton team on 20 17. Recently, Li Yongbo appeared in Tianshui, Gansu. He came to Nanshan Stadium in Tianshui, where he held a meeting with Li Yongbo badminton friends in Tianshui to promote badminton. Many local badminton fans in Gansu came here one after another, and they all met their idols as they wished? Li Yongbo, Yuan Guoyu's gold medal coach. Li Yongbo also enthusiastically took photos with everyone, signed autographs, patiently communicated face to face, and even personally went into battle to give guidance to fans.
According to the photos at the scene, Li Yongbo was wearing a sportswear and his trademark LYB black hat. Although wearing a hat, you can still see that Li Yongbo, who is over 60 years old this year, has gray temples, a fat figure and looks very old. He lost his former glorious British capital.
The Present Situation of Badminton in China
Since Li Yongbo left badminton, Zhang Jun became the head coach of the national team, and the China badminton team gradually declined. China used to dominate the family, but now it has become a battle between China, Japan, South Korea, Indonesia and Denmark in the Spring and Autumn Period.
Among these four countries, Japanese badminton poses the greatest threat to China.
As the 2020 Tokyo Olympic Games approaches, Japan has home court advantage and is expected to hit three gold medals (men's singles, women's singles and women's doubles). China's best hope of winning the gold medal is the mixed doubles (IELTS and Yellow Duck rank first and second respectively). Both women's doubles and women's singles have a chance to win the gold medal, but the chances are not too great. However, both men's singles and men's doubles are unstable, and the chances of hitting the championship are quite slim.
Now that coach Li Mao has returned to the national team and invited a foreign coach (Korean coach), badminton in China has begun to improve.
I hope that after the reform and reorganization, China badminton can overcome the difficulties and regain its glory.
