Tang Hetian (; born 5 January 1975), formerly known as Tang Yongshu (Ã¥ÂÂæ°¸æ·Â), is a badminton player who competed internationally for China in the 1990s. She played for Australia in the 2000s as He Tian Tang.
Specializing in women's doubles, Tang earned a bronze medal at the 1995 IBF World Championships and a silver medal at the 1997 IBF World Championships with her regular partner, Qin Yiyuan. Tang and Qin were also bronze medalists at the 1996 Atlanta Olympics, yet they were overshadowed by fellow countrywomen Ge Fei and Gu Jun, the dominant women's doubles team of the day, who took gold at the latter two events. Tang and Qin won women's doubles at the 1997 Thailand Open and played together on the Chinese team that reclaimed the Uber Cup (women's world team championship trophy) from Indonesia in 1998.
After 1998, Tang retired from the Chinese national badminton team and later married her national teammate Yu Qi. They immigrated to Australia in the early 2000s. Tang played for the Australia national badminton team at the Delhi 2010 Commonwealth Games, where she won a bronze medal in the women's doubles event. The same year, she also represented Australia in the Uber Cup.
At the 2014 Oceania Badminton Championships, Tang won a gold medal in the mixed team event and a bronze in women's doubles.
Her daughter Angela Yu followed in her footsteps as an Olympic athlete in Paris 2024 for Australia in the Women's doubles event. Also her son Jack Yu has been competing for Australia for the last five years.
