People mostly underestimate badminton. This sport actually really physically demanding. Profesional badminton is exciting to watch. My favorite is men's double.

I love that she has them running all over the court and she's just chilling in one spot

I got 7 minutes into the video and realized her voice sounded so familiar. Looked her up and she was my TA in college for developmental psych! Crazy seeing her in this video!! Didn't even know she was an Olympian! Hi Rena!

13:55 "I think we'll serve cause that might be the last time we serve" lmao they knew they were gonna get their asses whooped

I'm thoroughly enjoying this series... who knew it would be such a great crossover! She's amazing, btw. All the athletes participating as well :) thanks for this, guys!

Rena seems so fun to hangout with. I'm glad the try guys worked with her

Lowkey I got so distracted by the shoes at 12:43. Didn't know they make laces do that haha pretty neat

was no one else absolutely shook when rena said she’s turning 30 this year??

We Indonesian are really REALLY proud with our badminton, to the point that we have a foundation focusing on badminton. They offer scholarships for badminton athletes and the selections are not easy. Kids and people who got the scholarships bring honour as big as going to the military.

I like how she got excited with them when they measured how fast she could hit the ball lol Edit: lmao they got a 16-0 point lead and she makes it to 21 without them getting anything!! Thats a boss move🤣

Alright, KZfaq, you've impressed us and perhaps redeemed yourself. This might actually be the single best series on the entire platform.

I'm an American who lives in China where I discovered badminton and became OBSESSED with it in my 40's. I now play competitively and I am so happy I found the sport. I hope more Americans can discover the sport and play it more!

My brother used to play badminton at the professional level and my goodness people underestimate the difficulty. It is an intensely physical sport that demands an unreal level of agility and stamina. Anyone who mocks the sport has a complete lack of understanding of any of the form and complexity that goes into it

in Malaysia, badminton is like the number 1 go to sport every student chooses to participate in school. everyone wants to join the badminton club and it always gets full every year. everybody just loves badminton in Malaysia

As Indonesian living in the states where most people here underestimate badminton as an Olympic sport but rather think that it’s only a neighborhood sport, I am so glad you guys included this into the series!

Watch Chong Wei v Lin Dan matches and then you’ll know that it ain’t no joke

Rena was so sweet but a fierce athlete! Just like a cat!

Badminton looks like one of those things thats relatively easy to play casually but incredibly difficult to master. Kudos to the olympians

Fun fact: The Indonesians 🇮🇩 who dominated the Barcelona 1992 Olympics are husband and wife! They now owned a badminton training center here in Jakarta! Ps: as someone who grew up playing badminton in the backyard, the shots where they show shuttlecocks misplaced everywhere was hilarious because mine usually landed at the roof, trees, or neighbor's roofs! 🤣🤣

Really thankful they did a video of badminton. It’s simply the most underrated sport and I’m glad it’s in the spotlight. It’s literally the only athletic sport I can play

"People can lose their eyes...." Yeeeah. My wife got hit in the eye playing badminton in her teens, and it damaged her intraocular muscles. Now she gets double vision in one eye randomly. More frequently when she's tired or has been staring at a monitor for too long. And she's just lucky that's ALL that happened to her eye.

Thanks Zach for promoting this on Instagram. I never would have discovered so quickly!

loved Rena's energy in this video... She looked like she genuinely enjoyed her tie with the guys

Indonesia and China is the monster of this sport. all badminton competition almost dominated by this countries 🇮🇩🇨🇳. and also in Europe, Denmark is dangerous too

Rena is really amazing and really kind. I am actually traumatized from playing badminton with people at a higher level. They always mess you up.

"Kind of like a really chill tennis." Boy oh boy guess you never really watched a badminton match zach

"the next thing we're gonna show you guys is a drop! ... that actually hurt my thighs, I'm quite sore." Zach is such a mood

6:34 "The double drop"😂😂 I almost choked on water pfff XD I love try guys so much-

She was Honestly so sweet and her confident personality with love and compassion was so uplifting I really enjoyed watching this one.

This series is so high quality it’s really lovely

Honestly, Zach has done amazing in most of these olympic videos! As someone with chronic pain, it's rly cool to see.

Battledore & shuttlecock sounds like Benedict Cumberbatch

Literally watching each and every one of those videos. Whoever came up with this, give them a raise.

In the months of November to January, you can find people playing badminton in almost every alley there exists in India.....it is a really popular sport here.

I am a Latina who played varsity badminton in high school and casually in college and I can say that this makes me so so so happy to see. Badminton for sure is underrated, I always get so excited when I see badminton highlighted like this lol. Congrats to all the Olympians who have worked hard to get to where they are now.

If the try guys had 16 point lead and she played lefty the whole game it would have been an almost close match

This series makes me wants to watch every olympic sports games there is in the world

This was probably my most favorite out of this series so far and it totally is because of Rena Wang and her cheerful instruction combined with the absolute decimation of her opponents

I love how Alan Budikusuma and Susi Susanti not only won gold medal but they are also married :)))).

This series is really getting me pumped for the Olympics!

Hmm, since it's in America, I thought you guys are gonna invite Tony Gunawan. He won the Mens Doubles Olympic Title at Sydney in the year 2000 with Candra Wijaya. However, I liked Rena! She's so sweet, and I loved it how she teached Ned and Zach, Kudos to her.

This is so fun. Of all the sports they’ve learned, I want to do this one most. I’m going out a getting a badminton set today!

i loved when she hit the 200 km and they all started jumping around. so cute!

Badminton is one of those sports that is amazing and fun no matter what your skill level! It was cool to see what someone who is a true master plays like

I never thought that I would need this kind of series from the try guys!!! Ohhh I'm genuinely loving this series😍😍

Wow Rena is incredible! I love that this series has focused on some of the less watched sports. I love the olympics and this is amazing!

I play tennis and badminton. I love both, but badminton is how I'd start teaching a young kid handeye coordination. The game is more forgiving, its learning curve is a lot less steeper, and the speed at which new players can go from drills to actual matches is way shorter. Yet, the biomechanical lessons that badminton will teach your body will stay for life. Being light on your feet, spatial awareness, awareness of another person sharing a considerably smaller court (relative to tennis), how to shift from being heavy handed to being delicate, how to pace yourself, energy conservation. I can go on. Point is don't underestimate it because the it looks like they are hitting a ball with feathers.

I love how Rena just jumped up and down like a full fledged Try Guy! So wholesome and fun! ❤️❤️❤️

Don't lock this behind paywall. The world has a chance to see badminton, make it count!

Wow, I'm just getting more and more excited for the olympics with this series :D and definitely watching in 2024 as well for the breaking

hehe as a malaysian i'm so happy every time i see datuk lee chong wei appear. he's truly a living legend in this country, i still remember when writing about him in our primary school essays was common practice. he along with datuk nicol ann david revived the spirit of sport in the current generation, and continue to do so even in their retirement. this is really quite unrelated to the video, but i just wanted to appreciate him as i was reminded of his contribution to malaysia. sincerely, thank you datuk!

As an Indonesian, I am so proud of Indonesian athletes that always bring Gold(s) home in badminton

I loved her, she’s so patient & gentle yet so fierce & confident

The crazy thing about badminton is players can actually return a 200+ mph smash. It doesn't bounce like tennis, so you have something like .3 of a second to react. I went to watch the US open at CSUF with a friend for the first time a few years back. It's a completely different sport 😳😳 I couldn't keep up with what was going on at all lmao

I’ve learned so much about Olympic sports, what a great series!

As someone who loves badminton, this was so fun to watch!

Love this series! Haven't watched the whole series yet, so I don't know if this is covered later, but I would love to see some paralympic athletes and sports!

Loved this episode! Rena has such a great personality and worked so well with Zach and Ned

Thank you so much for this series, really appreciate it.

Every episode has been amazing

I'm loving these videos!!!

i just love how zach is such a cheerleader. he cheers for, for ned and for himself 🥰🥰

I've been playing since I was 10 (so nearly 9 years now) and I've always loved this sport so much and I'm glad it's getting the recognition it deserves. 🥰🥰

I love the series and I’ve learned so much! I could listen to the narrators voice all day

As an avid badminton fan, I'm glad to see this intro! Hopefully more people pick up the excitement of badminton. Be it playing or just like me, watching

She's cracking up and simultaneously not missing a beat! 👏🏼🖤

Indonesia just won it's *first Gold Medal for Woman's Double.* All thanks to Greysia Polii and Apriyani Rahayu. 🔥 Making us having Gold Medal in all the categories; Men's Single, Woman's Single, Men's Double, Woman's Double, Mixed Double.

Ned actually did quite well, I was pretty impressed with him.

I love badminton! I'm so happy ned and zach were able to do this. I love how Rena matched their energy lol

i love the try guys, so glad u guys did this series; i absolutely love it

Susi and Alan took 'couple goals' to whole new level

I played Badminton in high school, and remember my team was playing the final game in our competition tier, and we had to win that game to win our tier. The game went for so long! Our team hit 21 first, but the other team was on 20, so we'd keep tying, or moving up by only one point, until finally our team won 29 - 27. It was one of the most intense games I've ever played, and it's a fond memory.

I love Zach and Ned team ups. This series has been amazing to watch. I have even more respect for the athletes now.

Rena is incredible to watch. I’ve seen a lot of her matches watching her move so quickly is unreal. Rena is awesome!

Just here to say that Zach's hair looks incredible in this video. Zaddy Zach

as a malaysian, I'm offended by the fact that our country is not even mentioned in the video!!

I love how they got along with her so well

I've been playing badminton for a few years but no one has ever explained badminton so well like her, kudos!

16 point head start lmaooooooooo

Rena was such a delight

Great content!!!So inspirational and creative and funny!Great work

I really enjoyed this ep! Been playing badminton since i was a kid (leisurely of course!) Still learning drop and backhand

It's a shame to see how they didn't show the true speed of badminton and demonstrate how it is intense and is the fastest racquet sport in the world. This sport is already misrepresented in many countries and this was their opportunity to get people playing this amazing game.

I’m not much a sports person but when I first played/found badminton in high school p.e. it quickly became the only sport/activity I actually wanted to participate in and was excited to play. I wish I could play it again. Gotta go get myself at least two rackets and a shuttlecock so I can maybe play with my sister.

Rena is my favorite athlete so far! Love her energy!

I’ve loved all the Olympic experts. She’s so sweet and they seemed to have so much fun

Great video 😃 We need more of these videos showcasing the best sport on the planet 🏸🌍

Am I the only one amazed by the shoes and how they tightened the laces???? :0

Great job Rena!

i love this series so much

She's for sure my favorite Olympian shown in any of these Try Guys Olympics vids so far. She just seems so fun!

Wow I’m surprised they didn’t even score one point!! Just shows how talented she is

This makes me want to go play badminton really badly! The best days in PE!

Congratulations Olympics and Try guys!!! The series is sooooooo amazing and super super fun to watch! I love all but my fave is the Fencing episode. ❤❤❤

Rena is such an amazing sport and plays along with them so well

I used to play Badminton, it made me shed like 100lbs and I was enjoying it. Then Highschool came and I just stopped. Now I am heavier than before. I think I need to go back to playing it.

if you wanna know more about badminton while being entertained with humour (and still being accurate and more in depth) try cool kiz on the block badminton series because they also cover more technical issue like how to grip the badminton racket and movement technique. in badminton, we are not running, we are basically jumping

What a great crossover! So happy to see the guys leveling up!!!

I love how much fun she had while doing this video. love her

I always find it interesting to hear the different ways people say "narrator", there's "na-ra-tor", "nar-rar-rae-tor", "na-rae-ta"... so many!
