Badminton World Federation Suspends Five More Tournaments
The Badminton World Federation (BWF) announced on Monday that they are suspending five more tournaments due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. The affected tournaments include the Russia Open, Indonesia Masters, Malaysia Open, Singapore Open, and India Open. The BWF stated that the health and safety of the players, officials, and fans are their top priority.
The decision to suspend these tournaments was made after evaluating the current situation and consulting with relevant authorities. The BWF will continue to monitor the situation and make decisions based on the health and safety guidelines provided by the authorities.
