Robert Blair (born 7 August 1981) is a Scottish badminton player.
Blair was born in Scotland, but after attending Loughborough University in Leicestershire, he competed for England from 2001 until 2010, except at the Olympic Games, where Scotland and England are both parts of the Great Britain and Northern Ireland team.
His main motivation for changing nation was the prospect of medals at the Commonwealth Games.
[1][2] The reason(s) for Blair's return to Scotland remain unclear, but reports suggest a falling-out with members of the Badminton England setup was central to the decision.
[3][4][5] Blair competed in badminton at the 2004 Summer Olympics in mixed doubles with partner Natalie Munt.
