▪️Axelsen tilbage fra kort skadesperiode

…..uha, badminton i Danmark blev kortvarigt ret så bekymret…..med guld ved Super 1000 turnering i Jakarta ved den sidste turnering i Istora. 

Næste år afvikles turneringen i en større hal i samme område. Farvel til en berygtet og berømmet heksekedel, hvor de danske sejre har været få. Læs mit indlæg i går. 

▪️BWF Ranking Prediction

Axelsen (DEN) will defend their point, but Ginting (INA) will close the gap with additional points as IO23 runner up. Christie (INA) will be back to Top 5 and Rajawat (IND) will reach new career-high ranking after S1000 debut this week.
