Bao Chunlai
Bao Chunlai (Chinese: 鲍春来; pinyin: Bào Chūnlái; Mandarin pronunciation: [pâʊ ʈʂʰwə́n lǎɪ]; born 17 February 1983) is a retired left-handed badminton player from China.
The tall, powerful Bao ranked among the world's leading singles player during the first decade of the 21st century. He was a member of China's world champion Thomas Cup (men's international) teams in 2004, 2006, 2008, and 2010. Bao won medals at three of the six BWF World Championships that he played in, earning a bronze at the 2003 and 2007 editions, and a silver at the 2006 Championships in Madrid, where he upset first seeded Lee Chong Wei in the quarterfinals before falling to teammate Lin Dan in the final. A frequent finalist in top tier international tournaments, Bao had some difficulty breaking through in them until 2009, his most successful year, which saw him capture the Asian Championships, and the German, Singapore, and Japan Opens. In 2010 he upset his superbly accomplished compatriot Lin Dan in the quarterfinals of the prestigious All England Open but was then upset in turn by Japan's Kenichi Tago. Bao's repeat win that year at the German Open was his last tournament victory on the international circuit.
Bao officially retired from the national team on 21 September 2011. In 2015 he appeared in the sports action film Full Strike.
