Glad to learn from the article that Bao Yixin is pursuing her postgraduate studies. She said she wished to start learning English, since young it has been her dream to speak good English. If opportunities arise, she also wants to go overseas for studies as she has the thirst for greater knowledge, otherwise she would feel empty inside. Her romance with Liu Cheng is still on though she is no longer with the national team and they don't get to see each other every day. While they each pursue their own path, they also get more individual space and time alone, something she felt is very good for their relationship, unlike before when they were always together and she was the willful one and he was giving in to her all the time.
I was watching some old matches featuring bao yixin and tang yuanting, both as a partner and an individual they were so good. Personally my favourites, it's such a shame they both are gone. I miss them.
Bao Yixin & Tang Yuanting Reunion in Australia Following in the footsteps of Tang Yuanting, Bao Yixin has decided to move to Australia for the next stage in her career. The former world #1 left China’s national badminton team in 2017. Both Tang Yuanting and Bao Yixin were expected to be among China’s key players in this Tokyo Olympic cycle, but they left the national team in 2016 and 2017 respectively. The duo won the 2015 All England Championship in their first tournament together and were slated to reunite for the 2016 Denmark Open. The plan was shattered when Tang Yuanting left China’s team after Rio Olympics. However, their reunion will be taking place not in Denmark, nor in their home country, but in Australia. Coincidentally, the ex-badminton partner choose Australia as their next career advancement location. Like Tang before her, Bao Yixin will be making her return as a badminton coach rather than as a player. According to an announcement on the Facebook page of Australia’s National Badminton Centre, Bao Yixin will be coaching elite training and adult group lessons. Late last year, it was announced that Tang Yuanting had joined the centre as coach in their junior programme. [Source]
