Philipp Kurz
Philipp Kurz is one of the co-founders of the Yonex Badminton Hall in Zurich, which has grown to accommodate 29,000 members, making it a central hub for badminton enthusiasts in the city. Originally a badminton professional, Kurz opened the hall in 1997 with his partner Thomas Münzner to provide a space for players, particularly as there were limited facilities for the sport in Zurich at the time. Currently, the hall faces potential demolition due to city plans for a new bicycle route, sparking concerns over the impact on the local badminton community.
