BWF profile

Dai Yun (simplified Chinese:戴韫;traditional Chinese:戴韞;pinyin:Dài Yùn; born 22 November 1977) is a Chinese formerbadminton player.^[1]

At the beginning of the century Dai was ranked among the world's leading women's singles players, most of whom were her fellow countrywomen. Her titles included theChinese Taipei (1999),Malaysia (1999),Thailand (1999, 2003), andSwiss (2000) Opens. She was a highly effective member of consecutive world championChineseUber Cup (women's international) teams in1998,2000,2002. However, in badminton's three most prestigious competitions for individual players – theAll-England Championships, theWorld Championships, and theOlympic Games – victory eluded Dai. She was a runner-up to Chinese teammates at the1999 and2000 All-Englands. At the1999 World Championships inCopenhagen she reached the final only to lose the closest of matches toDenmark'sCamilla Martin. At the2000 Olympics inSydney she was beaten by Martin, again, in the semifinals, and then lost a close bronze medal match to fellow countrywomanYe Zhaoying. Dai's results slipped somewhat after 2000, and she retired from international play in 2004.

She is married to another former Chinese badminton player,Liu Yong.^[2]
