Former badminton queen against the skirt rule

After many players complained about the 19.2 “skirt” rule – which is scheduled to be enforced by BWF as of June 1st –  the concern of former badminton queen Camilla Martin may have an even bigger impact as her post career comments on the sport are rare. The Dane voiced her disagreement last week in a Danish newspaper.

“I don’t think that the world governing body should force the players in this case. The most important is that players feel comfortable in their outfit. I also do not think that with this change, badminton will gain interest from people,” said Martin to MetroXpress.
