Reasons for Tai Tzu Ying decision to retire after Tokyo 2020 Olympics.

 

1. I am not a tall player like those China WS. I am a short player.

2. As a short player I tend to need to run more to cover the court and need to run fast for court coverage,

3. Hence I tend to get injured very fast and it is not a good sign.

4. Injuries along the way while playing badminton has leave me with no choice but to retire from playing at a young age.

 

Of course I will miss Tai Tzu Ying a lot. But one thing for sure short players are always at a disadvantage when they play because they need to move and run faster to cover the court hence of course they will be very prone to injury.

Perhaps Intanon's message to her changed her mind...

ok , will they collect points during this event ?

Points collected in this event won't count towards Tokyo Qualification. Ranking published on April 30 2020 will be the basis for Tokyo Qualification. So, only events after April 29 2019 would count.
