PETALING JAYA: Reigning All-England women’s singles champion Tai Tzu-ying has been floored by a teenager. The shuttler is in quarantine after a young team member was tested positive for Covid-19, sparking concerns at all other participating teams.

The All-England that ended on March 11 at Arena Biringham went on as scheduled, despite calls by players for the Badminton World Federation (BWF) to have it postponed.
