Michael Graham Tredgett Template:Post-nominals[1] (born 5 April 1949) is an English badminton player who specialized in doubles and played at the world level for more than a decade, winning numerous international men's doubles and mixed doubles titles. Partnered with Nora Perry, they became the first ever world number one mixed doubles pairing in the inaugural IBF world ranking release in 1978.[2]

Badminton career

Tredgett won five medals in the World Championships between 1977 and 1983. He is also one of the most successful players ever in the European Badminton Championships with 5 titles, three of them in men's doubles and two in mixed doubles. He shared three All-England mixed doubles titles (1978, 1980, 1981) with Nora Perry and reached the All-England men's doubles final twice with Ray Stevens (1972, 1980) and twice with Martin Dew (1983, 1984). He won men's doubles with Stevens at the 1978 Commonwealth Games.

Personal Life and Post Career

In 1978 he married fellow badminton player Kathryn Whiting (a former English Junior champion).[3] In 1984, Tredgett was inaugurated with Most Excellent Order of The British Empire (MBE) medal due to his excellent service in sports.[1] In 2019, Tredgett was being inducted into Badminton Europe (BEC) Hall of fame.[4]
