About Sun Jun (badminton)

  • Sun Jun (simplified Chinese: ??; traditional Chinese: ??; pinyin: Sun Jùn; born 16 June 1975) is a former world number 1 singles badminton player from China in the late 1990s whose resume includes the World Championship, World Cup, Asian Championship and All England men's singles titles.
  • He was known for his all-round defensive ability as well as his never-say-die attitude on court as exemplified by his famous match with Peter Rasmussen whereby he suffered a severe leg cramp during mid-match but basically carried on to finish an entire set limping on one leg, at one point leading by 10-3 due to intelligent play before succumbing to his opponent. He is married to the great doubles badminton player Ge Fei.
