PROFILE:

Germany's rise to power in Europe has been spearheaded by Bjoern Joppien. 3 years ago, Germany was not known among Europe's power-brokers that included Denmark, England, the Netherlands and Sweden. Bjorn has been a major factor in Germany vaulting past Sweden into Europe's 4th position as a badminton team. Bjoern has taken home titles in both 2004 and 2005 and was a Semifinalist at the 2004 European Championships. His top 20 ranking shows that this young player has a bright future! At the MVP Cup, Bjoern will be playing against his Asian compatriot, Taufik Hidayat, for the first time. He promises to bring surprises with him to Manila from Germany!
