Fu Haifeng (Chinese: 付海峰, pinyin: Fù Hǎifēng, born January 2, 1984 in Jieyang (揭阳), Guangdong province) is a Chinese badminton player from the People's Republic of China.
Combining impressive speed with impressive power, Fu and his regular partner Cai Yun have been one of the world's leading men's doubles teams since 2004, winning numerous top tier events. These have included the prestigious All-England Championships in 2005, and the IBF World Championships in 2006. Fu and Cai have played doubles for Chinese Thomas Cup teams that have captured the last three editions (2004, 2006, 2008) of this biennial men's world team championship. Fu and Cai competed as a team in both the 2004 and 2008 Olympic Games. They were eliminated in the quarterfinals of the 2004 competition, and in 2008 were silver medalists, dropping a close final to Indonesia's Markis Kido and Hendra Setiawan.
An ancillary badminton achievement of Fu is that while competing in the 2005 Sudirman Cup (combined men's and women's team championship) one of his smashes was clocked at 332km/h (206 mph), the fastest propulsion of a shuttle on record.[1]
