  • Excellent work

    Active listener and badminton fan from Canada. It is great to hear from Axelsen in English, not just Mandarin :-). As a parent of two kids, who are dreaming to compete in Olympic badminton finals, this kind of insights from the best professional players like Axelson are extremely valuable to the kids but also to the parents, to prepare and support for the careers of the kids. Keep up good work and thank you CK and VA.
