My favourite sport

My favourite sport is badminton. I love badminton because
it’s fun to play with my family. It is usually played indoors,
between two teams which may have one or two players
each. They face each other on a court, which is divided by
a net. Apart from the net, rackets and a shuttlecock are
required to play the game. Badminton is a game of skill and
requires great fitness. I am a good player and enjoy the
game very much. My family and I play badminton every
evening. My favourite players are Goh Liu Ying, Chan Peng
Soon and Soniia Cheah.

Goh liu ying

Goh Liu Ying (born 30 May 1989) is
a Malaysian professional badminton player. She has been
consistently ranked among the top 10 mixed doubles player
in the world with her partner, Chang Peng Soon. Together,
they were ranked as high as world No. 3. They won the
silver medal at the 2016 Summer Olympics.

Goh was born on 30 May 1989 in Malacca to Goh Chak
Whee and Yong Oi Lin. She has two younger brothers, Goh

Munshi Abdullah in 5SN1. She first started training in
badminton at the age of 10. She enrolled into the Bukit

In 2009, Goh and Chan reached their first international

In March 2017, Goh and Chan become the first Malaysian
mixed doubles pair to reach the All England Open final
since 1955. In the final, Goh and Chan were defeated by

5th seed Lu Kai and Huang Yaqiong in 3 sets after a few
controversial fault calls by the umpire against them. In
April, Chan and Goh had to withdraw from the semi-final
of Indian Open due to Goh's injury. They later suffered
first round loss to Edi Subaktir and Gloria Emanuelle

In May 2017, Goh announced that she had an aggravating
injury in her right shoulder and thus, she went to Halle in
Germany for the surgery. She spent weeks to undergo her
rehabilitation in Halle before returning to Malaysia in
