PETALING JAYA: The remainder of the Badminton World Federation (BWF) World Tour season is in jeopardy with at least three notable legs set to be called off even before the September restart.
This comes following the Chinese government’s announcement that it is cancelling all international sporting events for the rest of the year, with special dispensation given only to the 2020 Beijing Winter Olympics trials.If this happens, it is going to affect three World Tour tournaments in the country – the China Open in Changzhou from Sept 15-20, Fuzhou China Open (Nov 3-8) and the World Tour Finals in Guangzhou (Dec 16-20).
