Wumo 2,796 Posted August 9, 2019 #11 Share Posted August 9, 2019 @Griff88 Okay, a twist in the "re-draw case". According to the Danish media, TV 2 SPORT, Kate Foo Kune, who was removed from the draw, has been suspended from all badminton since July due to an ongoing doping case. As a result, BWF initially conducted a draw with a player who themselves had suspended. According to several sources close to Kate Foo Kune, both the A and B test have turned out to be positive. http://sport.tv2.dk/badminton/2019-08-09-dopingsag-skyld-i-vm-kaos-suspenderet-spiller-var-med-i-lodtraekningen (in Danish) dcro and Griff88 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olympian1010 7,477 Posted August 9, 2019 #12 Share Posted August 9, 2019 Damn, Kate Foo Kune was my favorite player . She didn’t need to dope. What a poor player, absolutely dumb decision. Well, here ends a guaranteed Olympic spot for . “Sport has the power to change the world. It has the power to inspire.

up and down 82 Posted August 17, 2019 #14 Share Posted August 17, 2019 There are lots of last minute withdrawals from playing in Basel World Championship 2019. Will there be any replacement of players for those players who have withdrawn from playing? Or will it just be a walkover match? Any idea? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wumo 2,796 Posted August 17, 2019 #15 Share Posted August 17, 2019 Just now, up and down said: There are lots of last minute withdrawals from playing in Basel World Championship 2019. Will there be any replacement of players for those players who have withdrawn from playing? Or will it just be a walkover match? Any idea? There will be no replacements. If your opponent withdrew, it's a walkover. I already know that Jan Ø Jørgensen is through to the second round because Brice Leverdez has withdrawn. up and down 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
