Siti's Uber Cup dream debut dashed, stopped at airport as not fully vaccinated


No go: Siti Nurshuhaini Azman has received only one dose of vaccination so far.

PETALING JAYA: Up-and-coming national junior shuttler Siti Nurshuhaini Azman's hopes of making her Uber Cup Finals debut in Aarhus, Denmark from Oct 9-17 has been smashed.

The 17-year-old was supposed to leave for Denmark with seven other teammates on Monday night but was denied from boarding the flight because she had yet to be fully vaccinated.
