[Saba Sports News] Chinese badminton player Cheng Xing announced on social media that he has registered his marriage with his girlfriend, expressing his love for her: “In good times, it’s you; in bad times, it’s you; the future’s lows and highs must be you.” Fans left comments and sent their blessings, marveling at the recent happy events in the Chinese badminton team. It is reported that Cheng Xing and his girlfriend have been publicly dating for a long time. Due to the national team’s legal marriage age requirement of 22, Cheng Xing obtained his marriage certificate shortly after turning 22 during a break in competitions. Cheng Xing initially gained attention from fans because he resembles Chinese film star Zhang Yishan, joking that he would pursue a career in entertainment after retirement. Since 2022, Cheng Xing has gradually earned opportunities to represent the Chinese badminton team in the BWF Tour. He and Zhang Chi form a fixed pair and won their first career title at this year’s Super 300 Orleans Masters. Following strong performances in high-level tournaments in Japan and China, their current world ranking has risen to 11th, making them another mixed doubles pair from the Chinese badminton team with medal potential in the Los Angeles Olympic cycle.
