Yoo (L) and Shin, 2014 Asian Champs

 

Yoo clinched the 2014 crown with Shin Baek Choel, who also won a silver medal with Chang Ye Na in the mixed. This year Yoo partners Lee Yong Dae as the top seeds, with main rivals of the no.2 seeds Lee Sheng Mu/Tsai Chia Hsin of Chinese Taipei and world no.3 Ashan/Setiawan of Indonesia all on the bottom half of the draw.

 

Team VICTOR was the biggest winner back in last year when Korea’s Sung Ji Hyun and Hong Kong’s Lee Chun Hei/Chau Hoi Wah rounded up with victories in women’s singles and mixed doubles. VICTOR, as an official partner of BAC, will continue to provide top quality shuttlecocks (VICTOR MASTER ACE) and court equipment.
