ive seen black people play badminton and asian people play basketball... tho i agree, a lot of asian enjoy badminton and play badminton
badminton is not really popular, but my high school used to have it as sport when we don't have enough space for tennis or ping pong. But most of American don't know how to play badminton and equipments are rare to find, it was surprised to find its a seasonal item after I asked couple of sports retailers
badminton owns... requires much more stamina and speed than tennis.. so it's the best racket sport to keep in shape.
A lot of my high school friends could either play table tennis or badminton. Nearly all of them were asian, and out of the asians, they were also international students from china.
I guess just more asian plays it and ppl look at it like badminton three top all asians. yes this sport is dominated by asians but still it's not an asian sport.
Haha badminton is definintely an asian sport, all the clubs I go to are filled with asian members. Badminton is generally pretty popular among asians.
