Feng Tianwei was born in China in 1986, but moved to Singapore in 2007 under the Foreign Sports Talent Scheme and began her international career a month after arriving. She became a Singapore citizen a year later and was a member of the Singapore women’s team that claimed a silver medal at the 2008 Olympic Games – Singapore’s first medal in 48 years and the first since it became an independent nation. At the London 2012 Olympics Feng won a bronze medal in the singles event, Singapore’s first in the singles category since 1960.
