Some players will get wiped off, others will benefit: Pullela Gopichand on new scoring system
Badminton coach Pullela Gopichand said the new 15x3 scoring system starting next year will change the sport. He noted, "Some players will get wiped off, others will benefit." The BWF said this shorter format helps manage player workload. Gopichand believes speed and mental strength will now matter much more.
