There are too many tournaments
Olympics are supposed to be a joy to watch for everyone.
But I cannot remember how many career-ending moments I have witnessed in the Olympics, especially for Women’s Singles.
Players Committment Regulations have got to change.
Top fifteen singles players and top ten doubles pairs in the World Ranking will be required to play in all 4 Super 1000, all 6 Super 750, and 2 out of 9 Super 500 tournaments occurring in the full calendar year, making it a total of 12 mandatory tournaments. A fine of US$5000 per event will be imposed upon players/pairs who fail to play. Exemption from penalty will be considered by BWF on receipt of a valid medical certificate or strong evidence that prove players unfit to participate. However, suspended or retired are not subject to these regulations.
