    Well, your quote of "among the best in the world" leaves me with huge doubt. Sorry dude,don't mean to offend you but i think even if whites do succeed, they are only minorities in this game. ;)

    what is there to doubt? The world's current best in Male and Female respectivly are Chinese, and I don't doubt that... But the world's best mixed doubles is an English team... minorities? yeah, by numbers... not by talent/skill... I mean it's not really fair when out of every 10 people in the world, 2 are Chinese -sweat

    one of the championships is All England. how can you claim badminton to be an asian game?

    Aoes, where do you read that 2 our of 10 ppl in the world are Chinese?

    well, the world is estimated to have about 6.5 billion people... China alone estimates about 1.3 billion chinese people... add in an educated guess of Chinese people around the world... carry the 1.... it comes out to be about 2(3) out of 10... and India's catching up too -sweat

    more ppl play in asia is probably because there are more people there? =P

    i don't think that it is asian sport, the badminton club where i live doesn't that many asians...

    pingpong is more similar to tennis...a much more difficult sports to learn.
