Peng Soon-Liu Ying withdraw from world meet


KUALA LUMPUR: Badminton fans can forget about watching Malaysian mixed doubles pair Chan Peng Soon-Goh Liu Ying in action in the BWF World Championships 2021 as they have pulled out from the competition just six days before it kicks off in Huelva, Spain.

Lamenting their decision to withdraw, the 32-year-old Liu Ying cited the age factor, fitness and the increase in Covid-19 cases worldwide as the main reasons.
