Liang Qiuxia

Liang Qiuxia (Chinese: 梁秋霞 W.-G. Liang Chiu Hsia, born, Cirebon, West Java 9 September 1950) is a former Chinese Indonesian badminton player. She is also the brother of 6 time All-England Men Doubles Champion,Tjun Tjun.

Liang Qiuxia was one of the most important Chinese Badminton players of the 1970s. During this time there was still a strict separation between the WBF, which is close to China, and the much larger IBF association, so that Liang Qiuxia could rarely compete with the size of the other association. In 1974 she won silver in the Asian Games in Women's Singles and Gold in Women's Doubles with Cheng Huiming. In 1976, she became Asian champion, and in 1978 she once again won the Asian Games in the women's singles.

After her active career, she became a trainer and was a member of the Indonesian national team, including Susi Susanti.
