Li Xuerui

Li Xuerui is a retired Chinese professional badminton player, born on 24 January 1991, and one of the most successful players of her time. She won the women's singles gold medal at the 2012 London Olympics and silver at the 2013 and 2014 World Championships. She won fourteen Superseries titles, making her China's second most successful player after Wang Yihan, and she reached a career high of world number 1 in the women's singles, holding that position for 124 weeks. She graduated with a BA from Huaqiao University. The English Wikipedia lead gives only these career facts, so this entry records the nationality, birth date, discipline and the honours the lead names, and leaves the full tournament results, partners and club history to later sourced work rather than guessing at anything the lead does not state.
