Definition
双料 literally means 'double material' and originally referred to reinforced fabric or layered material. The word has extended metaphorically to describe a person who has outstanding abilities, stamina, or special qualities — like saying someone is 'double-strength' or 'top-notch'. You can use it both for physical materials (双料布料) and for people in a colloquial, admiring tone (双料冠军).
