BWF Secretary General Thomas Lund has provided an update on a range of topics relating to the Asian Leg of the HSBC BWF World Tour in Bangkok, Thailand.
Lund welcomed positive feedback from players regarding the safety protocols in place in Bangkok. He also acknowledged some of the challenges facing participants in the quarantine bubble.
"There has been a lot of preparation from many stakeholders to make this happen and I’m happy to see many positive sentiments received.
"We now have a badminton bubble that is COVID-19 clear with everyone testing negative and it’s important everyone continues to comply with protocols so we can stage three world-class badminton tournaments.
"It is a different environment we find ourselves in but we are doing everything we can to accommodate the players and their needs, while keeping safety requirements high," said Lund.
