    ..not only for the jump smash, but imagine moving around the court in that dress (i would guess it's quite heavy also)..

    maybe the name should change to English Premier Badminton Open Championship?
    hehehe...

    BTW, English Premier League has more foreigners playing nowadays than English players.

    as long as there are many spectators, doesn't matter what it is called.

    that's what i call a real isometric racket.


    Ethel Warneford-Thomson, who as Ethel Larcombe won the 1912 women's singles title at Wimbledon but who was also an accomplished badminton player, winning 11 All England titles, singles and doubles, between 1900-1906, poses in an undated file photo.
