Chou Tien‑Cheng Taipei Open donation
Entities: Chou Tien‑cheng · Tainan Youth Shelter · Eogene Ewe · Badminton Association of Taiwan · Wang Yukei
Overview
Taiwan’s world‑ranked badminton player Chou Tien‑cheng advanced to the quarter‑finals of the Taipei Open on 29 July, overcoming a Malaysian opponent after a tight schedule that included travel from the China Open final. Following the win, he donated his prize‑winning red envelope to the Tainan Youth Shelter, prompting the local badminton association to contribute additional rackets and funds for the centre.
The next day, after defeating a Japanese opponent to reach the semifinals, Chou pledged the NT$100,000 prize money awarded by the Badminton Association of Taiwan to the Tainan Juvenile Observation Center. The association also supplied 30 rackets and 100 shuttlecock sets to support a badminton training program for the youths, aiming to provide positive skills and reintegration opportunities.
Together, the two updates illustrate Chou’s on‑court success at the Taipei Open and his parallel charitable commitments to youth development in Tainan.
