BWF Working with Thailand Open Organisers after Kidambi Srikanth Left with Bloodied Nose

News 18  

Badminton World Federation on Wednesday said it is working with Thailand Open organisers to ensure “comfortable” COVID-19 testing conditions during the tournament after Indian shuttler Kidambi Srikanth was left with a bloodied nose following a test. Former world number one Srikanth on Tuesday got a bloodied nose after undergoing multiple COVID-19 tests and miffed at the poor treatment of health officials at Thailand Open, the Indian called it “unacceptable”. “Kidambi Srikanth got a bloodied nose after undergoing multiple COVID-19 tests. “It is not known whether the athlete had blown his nose or stuck tissue up his nostrils which could have caused more blood vessels to rupture.” The sport’s world governing body added that it is working with the organisers “to ensure the safest and most comfortable conditions for all players and participants.” Srikanth is scheduled to open his campaign against compatriot Sourabh Verma on Wednesday.
