Everyone at work keep asking me, “Eh, you so gila in tennis, how come don’t join our company badminton game?”
Let me explain, badminton and tennis might both have rackets, but they’re like char kway teow and spaghetti – totally different dish !

First thing, tennis is all about using the arm power, big swings, whack the ball across the court.
Badminton? ,everything is in the wrist. Imagine, I’m used to swinging my whole arm like Thor’s hammer, then suddenly have to flick my wrist like magician.
My wrist not that flexible.
And don’t even talk about spin. Tennis, we spin the ball until can curve like Beckham’s free kick. But in badminton, I spin until dizzy also the shuttlecock just drop like a rock
Then, badminton court so small. Tennis court bigger, got space to run around. Badminton court so tiny, I feel like a giant in a dollhouse.
So now you all know why I stay away from company badminton games. Let me stick to my tennis, where got space to swing big big and smash properly.
Badminton? I surrender! 😅
