Career

Zheng Yumin, born in Fujian, is the younger brother of Zheng Yuli, a former top level player who won medals in World championships and World Cup. Yumin specialised in doubles. In 1988, pairing with Lin Liwen, he won the championship in the first Youth Games. Afterwards, he entered the national team and paired with Zhejiang player Huang Zhanzhong in the men's doubles. In the 1990 Asian Games, Zheng/Huang both won the mixed team Gold Medal. In addition, Zheng won a bronze medal in Individual event with Shi Fangjing in mixed doubles. In the 1993 Asian Championships, Zheng Yumin suddenly fainted during a team match with the Indonesian team in the final. He was later diagnosed with a heart attack. After the National Games at the end of the year, Zheng immediately hung up. After retiring, Zheng Yumin was linked by her brother-in-law Yang Yang and went to Malaysia to teach for a few years. After that, he and his sister's family came to Australia to settle. In 1999, he and Wang Chen came together. Although they were 9 years apart, they finally came together and got engaged in Australia. In 2002, they moved to Hong Kong together, Wang Chen represented Hong Kong in international competitions, and Zheng Yumin became the coach of the Hong Kong men's team. In 2006, after Wang Chen won the Asian Games women's singles championship, the two talents made up a four-year postponed wedding.{{cite web|first=张|last=韬|url=https://sports.sohu.com/20070818/n251654785.shtml|title=王晨老公:主要给她一些建议 决赛关键在于心态|website=sports.sohu.com|date=18 August 2007|access-date=16 December 2020}}{{cite web|url=http://sports.cctv.com/special/yutan/20090420/110223_21.shtml|title=5、郑昱闽、王晨|website=CCTV-5 |language=zh-hans| date=20 April 2009|access-date=15 January 2023}}{{cite web|url=https://www.xuehua.us/a/5eb91ab286ec4d5748ed4ba5?lang=zh-cn|title=他是羽球天王杨阳的小舅子,妻子比他小9岁,出走香港成一姐|website=Xuehua|language=zh-hans|date=21 February 2019|access-date=15 January 2023}}
