Olga Roj

Konon is known for her speed and attacking style of play. She is currently coached by Kim Ji Hyun and Per Henrik Croona.^[2] Konon won her first major international tournament in 2004, at the Finnish International in the mixed event. She was only 14 at the time.^[1]

In 2005, she traveled to the north east of England to take on then county champions, mixed doubles team Andrew Dodds and Cheryl Wigham. Konon and her partner were beaten 21–9, 21–14.

In her next match she suffered a knee ligament injury at the Swedish International.^[1] After this injury, in 2007, she won a gold medal in girls' doubles and a bronze medal in girls' singles at the European Junior Championships.^[3] The following year she won Le Volant d'Or de Toulouse in women's singles, and qualified for the 2008 Summer Olympics.

In October 2014, the UK launched the National Badminton League. This consists of six national teams that play each other once during the season. Top national and European players were 'auctioned' off and bought by one of the six franchises, and Konon was picked to play for the University of Nottingham. In November 2014, she won her first match for the UON, beating Liz Cann 3–0.

At the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing, Konon lost in the round of sixteen to top seeded Xie Xinfang (who later won the silver medal) 21–16, 21–15. En route to the round of sixteen, she defeated Singapore's Xing Aiying, who is ranked 23 in the world, 21–19, 21–12. Later in the round of 32, she beat Slovenia's Maja Tvrdy, 21–17, 21–14.^[4]
