Hounslow’s Rajiv Ouseph is the reigning five-time British men’s badminton champion.

The 25-year-old won silver in the men’s singles at the 2010 Commonwealth Games in Delhi and bronze in the mixed team event.

And he would dearly love to add Olympic gold to his collection when he represents Team GB at Wembley Arena this summer.

“You need to relax and use the crowd as much as you can.”
