In the mixed doubles final of the Paris Olympic Games that ended on the evening of August 2, Beijing time, China's strong Zheng Siwei/Huang Yaqiong swept Korea's Kim Won-ho/Zheng Nayin 2-0 to win the 13th gold of the Chinese delegation at this Olympic Games. After the game, Huang Yaqiong was proposed to by her boyfriend Liu Yuchen on the spot, which caused the audience to scream.
I believe that badminton fans should be no stranger to Liu Yuchen, because he is also a member of the Chinese badminton national team and a teammate of Huang Yaqiong's national team. Born on July 25, 1995, he is 1 year younger than Huang Yaqiong. Born in Beijing, he comes from a sports family, and his sister Liu Jing is also a former member of the Chinese swimming team, who has won the World Swimming Championships.
Liu Yuchen's career has also been quite successful, as early as 2012, he entered the first team of the Chinese badminton national team. With a height of 1.93 meters, he is also a good material for doubles. Last week, Liu Yuchen and Li Junhui formed the well-known "Twin Towers" combination of national feather men's doubles and became China's No. 1 men's doubles. The two have also won important championships such as the Thomas Cup and the Sudirman Cup.
At the last Tokyo Olympics, Liu Yuchen and Li Junhui reached the men's doubles final and finally won the runner-up. After Li Junhui retired, Liu Yuchen and Ou Xuanyi formed a new "Twin Towers" combination, and once again qualified for the Olympic Games. It's just a little regrettable that because they fell into the group of death, the two failed to qualify from the group at this Olympics.
As early as May 20 this year, the two had actually officially announced their relationship on social media, and posted group photos many times. In the short video of the life of the national badminton players, the two often appear together, but because of the need to prepare for the game, the two are still low-key and unassuming. After winning gold in the Olympic Games, Huang Yaqiong, who has a successful career, can finally enter a new stage of life with her lover.
