No turning back, BWF not extending qualifying season


PETALING JAYA: The Badminton World Federation (BWF) have remained firm in their decision to stick with the Olympic qualification period despite pleas by players to extend it.

There have been calls for the world body to consider extending the one-year qualifying period after the Covid-19 pandemic wreaked havoc on the BWF tournament schedule since last month, depriving shuttlers of opportunities to collect invaluable ranking points in the final stretch of the Race to Tokyo.
