En 1933, Jack Purcell a \u00e9t\u00e9 nomm\u00e9 meilleur joueur de badminton en simple au monde sur la base de sa domination des meilleurs joueurs internationaux. <\/i><\/p>\n

En 1932, John Edward \u00ab\u00a0Jack<\/i>\u00a0\u00bb Purcell a \u00e9t\u00e9 nomm\u00e9 champion du monde de badminton en simple, mais il s\u2019est fait retirer son statut d\u2019amateur en raison de nombreux articles \u00e0 son sujet dans le Toronto Star<\/i> le d\u00e9crivant comme un professionnel. Il a par la suite \u00e9t\u00e9 d\u00e9clar\u00e9 comme \u00e9tant le champion du monde de badminton en 1933 et est demeur\u00e9 invaincu jusqu\u2019\u00e0 sa retraite en 1945 (un titre remis pour sa domination du meilleur parmi les joueurs canadiens, am\u00e9ricains et britanniques), malgr\u00e9 plusieurs tentatives pour d\u00e9fier ce titre de champion du monde. Deux fois champion canadien en simple en 1929 et 1930, Purcell a aussi remport\u00e9 cinq championnats de l\u2019Ontario cons\u00e9cutifs de 1927 \u00e0 1931. En 1931, il a atteint les demi-finales des Championnats d\u2019Angleterre.<\/p>\n

N\u00e9 \u00e0 Guelph en Ontario, Purcell a commenc\u00e9 \u00e0 jouer au badminton en 1924 et y a rapidement excell\u00e9 tout comme il l\u2019a fait au tennis et au golf. Reconnu pour sa personnalit\u00e9 dynamique, ses puissantes attaques et des coups furtifs sans rivaux, la carri\u00e8re de Purcell a commenc\u00e9 \u00e0 battre de l\u2019aile pendant la Deuxi\u00e8me Guerre mondiale en raison d\u2019un manque de raquettes et de volants, il a pris sa retraite en 1945. Il a poursuit une carri\u00e8re en tant que courtier en bourse et est devenu un membre de la bourse de Toronto. Purcell a \u00e9labor\u00e9 un mod\u00e8le de chaussures portant son nom (aussi connu sous le nom de PF Flyers), un soulier au tissu blanc avec des semelles en caoutchouc, puis en 1972, la chaussure a \u00e9t\u00e9 achet\u00e9e par Converse (avec les droits sur la marque de commerce des chaussures \u00ab\u00a0Jack Purcell\u00a0\u00bb). Il est d\u00e9c\u00e9d\u00e9 \u00e0 Toronto en 1991 \u00e0 l\u2019\u00e2ge de 87 ans.<\/p>\n

Purcell a \u00e9t\u00e9 nomm\u00e9 athl\u00e8te par excellence du 20e<\/sup><\/span> si\u00e8cle par La Presse canadienne en 1950. Il a \u00e9t\u00e9 intronis\u00e9 au Panth\u00e9on des sports canadiens en 1955 et au Temple de la renomm\u00e9e olympique du Canada en 1973.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
