She described the facilities as “extremely poor,” specifically citing unclean, poorly maintained courts and substandard general amenities.Her comments have raised questions about the tournament’s administration, prompting players and spectators alike to urge the Badminton World Federation (BWF) to intervene and guarantee enhancements for future competitions.“The conditions are exactly the same as last year, which is concerning for all players,” she remarked. “If this continues at future major events, it would be unfair to athletes.”Blichfeldt called on the BWF to take these concerns seriously, noting that the current environment falls short of international standards and hinders the players’ ability to perform at their peak.
