Financial reasons placed above players safety for AEC: Saina
Hyderabad, March 18 - Saina Nehwal has said that in the All England Championships money was placed above players' safety by continuing the meet last week despite the coronavirus outbreak.
"Only thing I can think of is that rather than the players welfare n feelings, financial reasons were given more importance. Otherwise there was no other reason for the #AllEnglandOpen2020 to go on last week," Saina tweeted.
Saina crashed out in the opening round of the meet which was among a few which continued even as major global sporting events were either postponed or cancelled.
The Badminton World Federation (BWF) put a halt to all their events on the day the event got over.
