Vietnamese badminton players have not been well-represented in the top 32 in recent years. Is that about to change? Will Vietnam badminton change the status quo soon?
In the past, we’ve seen men’s singles player Nguyễn Tiến Minh do very well on the world stage. In 2013 he won the bronze medal at the World Championships in Guangzhou, China (he was defeated by the great Lin Dan in the semifinal). In recent years none of the talented Vietnamese men’s singles players have managed to get inside the top 20 on the ranking list.
Ladies’ single player Nguyễn Thùy Linh recently won the Vietnam Open BWF Super 100 tournament. As of August 2024, she is number 26 on the BWF World Ranking list. At 26 years of age, she might be able to work her way into the top 20. Other female players from Vietnam are mostly outside the top 100 in the world badminton ranking.
Why is Vietnam trailing other Asian badminton nations?
For starters, badminton IS very popular in Vietnam. So it is not for the lack of skilled players and enthusiasm. Because of the huge number of badminton players in the country, Vietnam has the potential to produce loads of international top badminton players. Yet it hasn’t happened in recent years.
Our sources suggest that the lackluster performance of Vietnamese badminton has to do with the organization of the sport. In other words, how the sport is organized in general.
Favoritism, resistance to modernization, misallocation of funds, the lack of a proper tournament structure, and the overall method of organizing the sport in Vietnam are seemingly some of the reasons why Vietnamese badminton is trailing most other Asian badminton nations.
As a passionate badminton fan, you have probably seen India growing into a strong badminton nation over the past 15 years since Saina Nehwal burst onto the scene. She signified a turning point in India’s badminton fortunes.
Before 2010 India hadn’t achieved a great deal, one World Championship bronze and only 2 major titles, All England titles won by Pullela Gopichand and Prakash Padukone.
That is a very poor record for such a promising badminton nation, however, it is starting to change. The modern era of badminton players from India, ignited by Saina Nehwal, is impressive. They have achieved in 15 years what their predecessors couldn’t in 100 years. Indian badminton players have found success at nearly every level in every badminton competition, but the coveted Olympic gold medal still eludes them. To confirm their legacy as the generation that changed Indian badminton, they need to win Olympic gold!
Could that happen in Paris?

India’s chances at Paris 2024
India has 5 entrants in the Olympic badminton competition. PV Sindhu in Women’s singles, HS Prannoy and Lakshya Sen in men’s singles, Crasto and Ponnappa in Women’s doubles, Rankireddy and Shetty in men’s doubles. We are now mid-way through the group stages so how do their chances look?
Watch the Olympics in India through Jio Cinema online or Sports 18 Network on TV
PV Sindhu – 16/1 odds (Prediction: QF)
There is a strong consensus that An Se Young of South Korea or Chen Yufei of China will meet in the final in Paris. This makes a lot of sense as they have looked by far the strongest two players leading up to the games.
To add to this Sindhu has found it difficult to get form this year, coming back from a knee injury in February, she only competed in one final this year more often losing in the first or second round of tour events. The only thing that might change it is the occasion and pre-Olympic training block.
Sindhu won her first group game against Razzaq of Maldives, which is expected. The group stages are going as expected with no upsets yet. Sindhu is nearly guaranteed to get out of the group stage where she will likely face He Bing Jiao of China in the R16. A player she has a fairly even record with, 9-11 on H2H but no matches in the last year. If she does surpass Bing Jiao she will face reigning Olympic champion Chen Yu Fei, they have an even record 6-6 but Sindhu lost their last match.
It is very unlikely that PV Sindhu will get any medals in this Olympics. A mixture of bad form and injuries has made her job very tough. She is a fighter and knows what it takes to get to finals in these big events so could surprise people. Beating both Chinese athletes will be a difficult challenge to overcome and she will likely fall at the hands of Chen Yu Fei.
HS Prannoy – 25/1 odds (prediction: QF)
HS Prannoy has had a mixed time in qualifying. Unfortunately for him, his best results came back in 2023 with the Malaysia Masters title and runner-up at the Australian Open, he also reached 3 semi-finals all in 2023 or early 2024. This would indicate that Prannoy is perhaps on the wrong side of form with results tailing off closer to the games. His experience at the World Championships in 2023 could give him some extra fire but realistically he is very unlikely to get a medal in Paris.
So far after one match, Prannoy is top of his group after beating the stubborn German Fabian Roth. He is expected to progress from this group comfortably. In the R16 Prannoy will face either Jonatan Christie of Indonesia or compatriot Lakshya Sen. Prannoy has an even H2H with Layshya Sen, which would be a 50-50 match, Sen won the last match they played. Christie would be a bigger problem with a 6-3 lead in H2H and won all 3 of their latest matches.
To get a medal Prannoy would likely need to beat Jonatan Christie and Kodai Naraoka! Both players he has struggled against recently. Our prediction – his Olympics will end in the R16.
Lakshya Sen – 33/1 (Group Stage)
Lakshya Sen is currently ranked world number 18, a far cry from his best ranking in 2022 of 6! It’s fair to say that Sen has struggled to find consistent form with varied results in qualifying. His only title came at the Canada Open 500 with good wins over Vitidsarn, Li Shi Feng, and Nishimoto. On his day Lakshya can beat most players in the top 10 but this isn’t consistent, so the question remains if he brings his best to the court or becomes unerved by the occasion.
Jonatan Christie of Indonesia is the ranked player in his group. Christie has been up and down in the run-up to the Olympics. He won the All England and Asian Championships but proceeded to lose in the R32 in his two tournaments before Paris. Again similar to Layshya it will depend on what version of Christie turns up. Christie also has a 4-1 H2H record against Sen so knows how to beat him. Even if Sen does surpass Christie he then faces compatriot Prannoy who has the experience over Sen in these high-pressure situations.
Sen will compete well but our prediction is a loss to Christie in the group stages.
Crasto and Ponnappa – 45/1 (Prediction: Qualifying)
Crasto and Ponnappa beat fierce competition from Jolly and Gopichand to secure their Olympic spot. Ponnappa is in the twilight of her career at 35 but partner Crasto is only getting started in her career which sometimes shows on the court in big moments, tensing up and making unnecessary mistakes or poor decisions. This is likely to be Ponnappa’s last big competition for India and will want to finish her career well. On route to qualification, they competed in 6 finals showing good composure!
So far Crasto and Ponnappa have played 1 of the 3 group games which they lost to Korea’s Kim and Kong. In their second group game today (Monday) they will need to beat top seeds Shida and Matsuyama of Japan, the pair that beat them in the recent Asian Championships. A loss here will end their Olympic medal dreams. Even if they do claim the victory today they will need to also beat Mapasa and Yu of Australia to progress to the knockouts.
For Crasto and Ponnappa we predict the Japanese pair will be too strong for them meaning their Olympic dream could be over today.
Rankireddy and Shetty – 4/1 (Win)
The Irony is that the best odds for a gold medal come from men’s doubles when India has been known as a single’s nation. Add to that the influence of Denmark on the pair with Mathias Boe as their head coach, many would have thought star coaches Prakash Padukone or Pullela Gopichand would be the source of Olympic Gold.
Rankireddy and Shetty are top doubles players which they showcased in qualifying. There was no uncertainty about their involvement with 7 finals during qualifying at the top tournaments earning huge points. This qualified them in 3rd place and a preferential draw in the group stages.
So far Rankireddy and Shetty have played one match that they won against French pair Corvee and Labar. it was a fairly straightforward victory that we have come to expect from the Indian pair. Lamsfuss and Seidel have pulled out of the tournament leaving only one match left against Ardianto and Alfian of Indonesia, this match might not even matter if the Indonesians beat the French pair today (Monday).
Once Rankireddy and Shetty progress from the group, they will be two wins away from a medal. They have a good record against all of the top pairs except Chinese favorites Wang and Liang who consistently beat them with a 5-1 H2H. We think Rankireddy and Shetty are ready for the biggest stage and will be in the final, maybe even Gold medal winners!
So the short answer is; yes we think it could be.

Who are the young rising badminton stars at the Olympics in Paris?
Paris Olympics badminton is the premier event in the badminton 2024 calendar. So it is understandable that everyone is watching out for the top players. But for true badminton fans, the Olympics is also a chance to get a glimpse of future badminton stars!
Young players under the age of 22, who earned their place at the Olympics, get an early taste of the top level of badminton, possibly setting them on a trajectory of greatness! This is what excites many avid badminton fans.
Through the years we have seen many future champions compete on the Olympic stage before confirming their legendary status.
You might recall Fu Haifeng competing at the 2004 Athens Olympics with Cai Yun, Saina Nehwal making her Olympic debut at 18 in the 2008 Beijing Olympics, PV Sindhu winning her Silver medal at the Rio 2016 Olympics at only 21 years old and An Se Youngwas 19 at the 2021 Tokyo Olympics – she will only be 22 when she competes in Paris!
So which future badminton stars will participate in the Paris Olympics?
The doubles categories are generally won and dominated by more experienced pairs. This might also be the case at the Paris Olympics. Tactical understanding and skill seem to be a much larger factor in doubles than it is in the singles categories. When paired with the smaller draw for doubles than singles, it doesn’t leave much room for younger competitors.
Men’s Doubles talent at the Paris Olympics
Joshua Yuan of the United States of Americawill compete with partner Vinson Chiu in men’s doubles at the age of 21. Part of the increasingly competitive US contingent of players, this pair will hope to do some damage in the group of 5 (Group D). With two runner-up places and one semi-final finish at the PanAm championships, the pair have a lot to prove against the higher-ranked opposition.
Could they make a statement for the coming wave of American players?
Womens doubles – young promising Olympians at Paris
Angela Yu debuts at her first Olympic Games for Australia at 21 partnering with Setyana Mapasa. They qualified for the Paris Olympics in 16th position ranked 32 in the world. They secured their Olympic spot through a protected continental representative place.
The pair have had a successful qualification taking 4 titles along the way with a runner-up place and four semi-final finishes on the BWF Tour. They will hope their title-winning ability will see them through to the quarterfinals, but with strong competition in Group C, it will be tough.
Tanisha Crasto debuts at the Olympics in Paris with Veteran partner Ashwini Ponnappa at 21 years old. The Indian pair had a tough qualification beating out Indian favourites Gopichand and Jolly. They qualify in 13th place with a world ranking of 21.
The Indian women’s doubles pair beat all expectations clinching 3 titles and a further 2 runners-up spots. They produced great results beating some of the top-ranked doubles players which will serve them well in Paris. Crasto/Ponnappa have been drawn in group C, which we predict will be a tricky group for all involved.
LIU Sheng Shu & TAN Ning are part of the new wave of Chinese badminton players. They will be 20 and 21 at the games. Already ranked 3rd in the world with some extremely impressive results. They made 7 finals during qualification, all in top-level Super Series competitions, showing they already have an elite level of play and mentality.
Liu/Tan are drawn in group B, which statistically should be the easiest group for them to escape from with the 11th, 12th, and 15th qualified pairs in their group. The path looks promising for them to start an era of dominance with an Olympic title.
Mixed Doublesat the Olympics in Paris
Tanina Violette MAMMERI of Algeria will be 21 when she partners her brother Koceila Mammeri at the Olympic Games in Paris. The siblings qualified in 16th place ranked 47th in the world. They played in 8 finals during qualifying, mainly at the IC and IS levels in Africa.
They will hope the experience in these tense finals will help them to progress from the group. In Group B they face 3 pairs with plenty of experience at the top levels of the world. All of them competed at the Tokyo Olympics.
Women’s singles at the Paris Olympics badminton competition
Kaloyana Nalbantova will be 18 when she competes at the Paris Olympics for Bulgaria, home of the Stoeva sisters. She qualified in 33rd place with a world ranking of 76! In qualifying she was able to gain lots of ranking points at the European championships, the Abu Dhabi Masters Super 100, and the Irish Open! She faces An Se Young and Qi Xuifei of France in group A.
Polina Buhrova represents Ukraine at 20 years old in Paris! Now training and living in Italy she will be hoping to make her country proud. She qualified in 31st place with a world rank of 74. Her top results from qualifying came with two semi-final finishes in the Swedish IS and Mexico IC. She will need to get past Gregoria Tunjung of Indonesia and fellow European Tereza Svabikova!
Keisha Fatimah AZZAHRA of Azerbaijan has qualified in 30th place with a world rank of 71. The 21-year-old won a title at the Cameroon International backed up with numerous semi-final finishes at IC level to clinch her place in Paris. She will compete with experienced players He Bingjiao and Kirsty Gilmour to progress.
Juliana Viana VIEIRA of Brazil qualified in 25th place with a world rank of 47. The 20-year-old has had a breakout year getting to the second round of the World Championships, reaching the quarter-final of the PanAm championships as well as clinching an IS and IC title. A strong up-and-coming player from South America, she will need to beat Supanida Katethong and Lo Sin Yan Happy, a good draw for her.
LO Sin Yan Happy of Hong Kong will be 21 at the Paris Games. She qualified 24th ranked 46th in the world. Lo’s breakout year had some great highlights. She took the title in the Iran Internationa Challenge with second place at the Odisha Masters and 4 semi-final finishes to support her qualification. Drawn against Juliana Vieira and Supinda Katethong, Lo will be positive about her chances of progressing in a tight group.
“An honorable mention for An Se Young who will be 22 in Paris but ranked number 1. An incredible accomplishment for a shuttler who still has so much badminton ahead of her.”
Men‘s Singles
Viren Nettasinghe of Sri Lanka will compete in his first Olympics, at the age of 21, after qualifying in 32nd place at 72 on the world rankings. He chose to mainly compete in the IC level competitions during qualification performing well with good consistency. Viren will compete in Group G against Pablo Abian and Lee Zi Jia.
The shuttlecock is arguably the most important part of badminton. If they are not made correctly it changes the whole game. Could you imagine if every shuttle you picked up flew differently? Or if the shuttle wouldn’t fly cork first?
It would be chaos!
That is why a lot of effort goes into manufacturing near identical shuttles. China is the number one producer of shuttlecocks globally, which makes sense as they account for 76% of the world’s goose and duck meat. This gives them plenty of supply of feathers and cheap labor!
In addition, the manufacturing process is automated with human quality control. This allows shuttlecock manufacturers to produce shuttles with great consistency in quality and performance.
Elsewhere, in India for example, several manufacturers mostly rely on producing badminton birdies almost entirely by hand. See this article about handmade shuttles.
We already know from our previous articles in the shuttle series that feather shuttles comprise a feather skirt and cork base. This is the most basic component. How do you keep the feathers in the cork? How do they make sure the shuttle flies correctly? What is the testing process like?
Luckily Design Insider was allowed inside a shuttle factory to show us how it’s done.

The shuttlecock is the most iconic part of badminton and is globally recognised as the symbol of our sport. Even so, many people do not know how awesome shuttlecocks are! So we have created this shuttlecock series to take everyone from shuttlecock novice to shuttlecock master…
So let’s start with the fundamentals!
🧠 Do you know that not all shuttlecocks are the same? There are shuttlecocks for high and low altitudes, shuttlecocks for hot and cold climates, even shuttlecocks for dry and humid conditions. Not to mention the newest change to the shuttlecock, special outdoor shuttlecocks!
Two shuttlecocks side by side. See the flared feather skirt and narrow cork base.
After reading this article series you will have all the information to be the know-it-all at your club!
Shuttlecock Fundamentals
The badminton shuttlecock, also known as a Shuttle, Birdie, Volant, or Ball, is the object hit between two people playing badminton. The Shuttle is characterised by two parts, the base (or head), and the skirt.
The shuttle is the only sports object designed to slow down once hit instead of speed up. This is done via the skirt of the shuttlecock flaring wider than the base (the part players hit). This increases drag from wind resistance. The cone shape is designed to hold in the air longer and slow down quickly.
The cone shape makes the shuttle fly in a very stable and predictable way making it easier to judge the flight of the shuttle. The unique shape enables the shuttle to fly base first making it much easier to hit. This is important for playing consistent and repeatable shots. The shape also slows the shuttle down giving players more time to react and ensuring the shuttle drops steeply when reaching the rear of the court.
Do you have any more questions about the design of the shuttlecock? Leave us a comment!
There are many different types of shuttlecocks ranging from different materials, and different grades even for different conditions. The many options can make it very confusing to know which shuttles to choose. So this is our full breakdown of the different types of shuttles and how you can choose the right shuttlecock for you!
The first big difference in shuttlecocks is the material used. This is generally split into 3 categories: Feather, Hybrid, and Synthetics.
Synthetic Shuttlecocks
Synthetic Shuttlecocks are the most popular type of shuttle for beginners and recreational players. They are characterised by a synthetic material, normally nylon, to create the skirt of the shuttlecock. This is molded into a netting or webbed shape. These shuttles are durable and last for multiple games without any damage which is especially useful for players learning the sport.
🧠 Did you know? Synthetic shuttlecocks need to use a netting style with holes as Nylon is a heavy material. If the skirt was solid with no holes it would be too heavy and drop too quickly. So tiny holes are added to the skirt to allow air to pass through making the trajectory more similar to a traditional feather shuttle.
What are the pros and cons of the Synthetic shuttles?
Pros
Synthetic shuttles are generally much cheaper.
They are more durable and difficult to break. You can play multiple matches with the same shuttlecock.
Cons
Synthetic shuttles are slower and require more effort to hit with power.
It is much harder to play more technical shots like slices.
They are less stable and predictable making it harder to play precise shots.
Who should use synthetic shuttles? This type of shuttle is very effective for players who are learning. Players that use fundamental badminton shots, clears, smashes, drop shots, net shots, drives, and block defense. It’s also a great option for players who play recreationally with friends and don’t want to spend too much money.
Feather shuttlecocks use processed feathers from birds to create the skirt of the shuttle. The ‘quill’ of the feather is inserted and glued to the base of the shuttle. These types of shuttlecocks are used at the competitive and professional levels of badminton in every country.
🧠 Did you know!? (Is it true?) Feather shuttlecocks only use feathers from the left wing of the bird… why? Aerodynamics! The feathers from the left wing of the bird are said to fly more consistently and spin in the same way due to the contours and curvature of the feathers. According to Satoshi Yuza, a Yonex promotion manager.
It is generally understood that the goose feathers are the premium version of the feather shuttle with duck and chicken feathers being less durable and generally lower quality. Some lower quality or grade shuttles use feathers from all over the bird and then form them into the shape of a left-wing feather. These feather shuttles do not fly as well and are generally less durable.
What are the pros and cons of the feather shuttles?
Pros
These shuttles are more sensitive to the player’s shots making them more precise.
It is easier to play more technical shots with them.
They sound much nicer to hit and easier to tell good vs bad hits.
Cons
Feather shuttles are sensitive to how they are hit. They are harder to play with if you don’t have a good technique which also breaks the shuttle faster.
Feather shuttles are very fragile and can break after 2-3 points.
Feather shuttles can be deformed more easily if stored incorrectly.
Who should use feather shuttles? Technical ability is the biggest factor when deciding to use feather shuttles. Technically good players, capable of playing all types of shots, need ‘feel’ or accurate shuttle flight to play advanced skills such as slices, tumbles or backhand clears. They are for players who are playing competitively and need reliable flight for their shots.
Hybrid Shuttlecocks
Hybrid shuttlecocks are a mix of both synthetic material and natural materials. Different brands create hybrid shuttles in slightly different ways with different formulas. For example, Babolat hybrid shuttles have a traditional cork ‘head’, a synthetic Nylon base, and a feather skirt. Victor hybrid shuttles, on the other hand, are made with carbon fiber, this shuttle has a foam-like synthetic feather skirt with a carbon fiber frame and cork composite base. You need to check each hybrid shuttle to see how it has been created.
🧠 Hybrid shuttles only recently started to be developed and available in badminton. The aim is to make a synthetic shuttle that mimics exactly how a feather shuttle performs. Why? To make a cheaper and higher performing shuttlecock.
The badminton community has been split on their view of hybrid shuttles. The purists of badminton want to keep feather shuttles, the original shuttle, and the highest quality of the shuttles to keep the game high quality.
Many club-level players are eager to find a hybrid shuttle that performs more like a feather but at a cheaper price. Both of these groups currently reject hybrid shuttles and haven’t adopted them into the game on a large scale, however, innovation is continuing with better quality hybrid shuttles coming to market.
What are the pros and cons of hybrid shuttles?
There is not a straight answer to this as every hybrid shuttlecock is very different. If you are looking for the play style of a feather shuttle for the cost of a synthetic then you should try some of the newest hybrid shuttles. If you want to be ahead of the curve you should keep an eye out and try new hybrid shuttles that come out.
It’s not only the skirt that can be a different material. The base or ‘head’ of the shuttlecock that is hit can also be different materials.
Most bases are made from cork material, however, this is not the full story as you can have composite cork or natural cork. Natural cork is one piece of cork cut to the right size, shape, and weight for each shuttle. This makes the weight consistent and the cork more durable as it is one piece.
Composite cork is a mixture of natural cork and synthetic cork which deteriorates quicker than natural cork as it’s not one piece. The composite is a cheaper option which is used in the budget option shuttles.
The Base cover
You might also see the white covering on shuttles. It’s the same for every type of shuttle, right? No! Again you have options. This is important as it is the only part of the shuttle that contacts the strings of a racket. Traditionally shuttles were covered in different types of leather which combine with the cork and propel the shuttle over the net. We do still see this used today with sheep membrane/skin used for some shuttles. However most shuttle types use a rubber covering for the head of the shuttle, this is a good option as it adds more propulsion to the shuttle as rubber is generally more elastic.
Third: Shuttle grades
Feather shuttles have an added complexity as, unlike hybrid or synthetic shuttles, there are different grades of shuttles. The grade of the shuttle is a way of categorising the quality of shuttles which is why only feather shuttles have this. Feather shuttles can vary massively in their quality due to the feathers and manufacturing whereas hybrids and synthetics can be standardised much more easily.
So what determines shuttle grade?
The main factors that affect shuttle grading are durability, consistency, and flight trajectory.
As you can see in our ‘How shuttlecocks are made article‘, the feathers used for shuttlecocks are graded and categorised before they are made into shuttles. In this way, the best feathers are made into the best shuttles by combining them with the best bases, with the lower grades of feathers having lower grades of base.
The shuttles are tested again after manufacturing for flight speed and quality. The best quality shuttles should fly very consistently with a near-perfect flight trajectory and arc numerous times. The shuttles will also be more resistant to damage.
So now we know what grades are, it’s simple, right? You would think so but not really. Every brand of shuttle manufacturer has its grading system and categories. So you need to check each badminton brand for their grading system. A good general rule is the most expensive shuttles are the best quality.
