Chan: It’s better for players

Peng Soon: ‘I believe many are tired of the current scoring system, as it has been in use for so long.’

KUALA LUMPUR: Former Olympic silver medallist Chan Peng Soon believes the Badminton World Federation’s (BWF) introduction of a new scoring system will inject fresh excitement into the sport.

BWF recently announced that the 15-point format will be reintroduced in selected tournaments from April to October, potentially replacing the current 21-point system.
