BWF World Tour looks to be stillborn with four events cancelled


No chance: Malaysia’s Goh V Shem (right) and Tan Wee Kiong are unable to defend their Taiwan Open men’s doubles title this year as the tournament has been cancelled.

PETALING JAYA: The Badminton World Federation (BWF) World Tour looks to be over before it even started.

Not one, but four events of the flagship circuit in September, including the Taiwan Open from Sept 1-6 have been cancelled. These meets were supposed to have kick-started the resumption of the season which was halted in mid-March.
