From Wikipedia: The most powerful stroke in badminton is the smash, which is hit steeply downwards into the opponents' midcourt. The maximum speed of a smashed shuttlecock exceeds that of any other racquet sport projectile. The recordings of this speed measure the initial speed of the shuttlecock immediately after it has left the player's racquet.
Men's doubles player Fu Haifeng of China set the official world smash record of 332 km/h (206 mph) on June 3, 2005 in the Sudirman Cup. The fastest smash recorded in the singles competition is 305 km/h (189 mph) by Taufik Hidayat of Indonesia.[17]
From Badders.com:
Shortest game: Rumour has it that Ben Witham holds the international record for shortest game of mens singles when he beat Paul Butler 15-0 15-0 in the qualifying event at the All England in 11 mins (Needing 32 rallies). I suspect now that the new scoring requires a minimum of 42 rallies this may be a tough act to follow.
