[Saba Sports News] Recently, former Malaysian badminton star Goh Liu Ying shared the good news of her second child, a baby girl, on social media, and posted photos of her newly-born daughter placed in an incubator by medical staff, showcasing her adorable side. These heartwarming images have prompted netizens to leave messages of blessings. It is reported that Goh Liu Ying first publicly announced her marriage and pregnancy in April 2023, and gave birth to her first son in August of the same year. In just one year and nine months, she has given birth to another daughter, completing her family with children in less than three years. Interestingly, Goh Liu Ying has never disclosed details about her husband or his family. Neither wedding photos nor group photos with her two children have ever featured her husband. According to insiders within Malaysia’s badminton community, this reticence stems from her marriage into a wealthy family, where the husband’s family does not wish to attract public attention. At 36 years old, Goh Liu Ying is considered the most successful female mixed doubles player in Malaysia’s badminton history. She teamed up with Chan Peng Soon and defeated the Chinese favorites Xu Chen/Ma Jin in the 2016 Rio Olympic Games mixed doubles semifinals, securing a valuable silver medal, which was the best achievement for Malaysia in Olympic badminton.
