'This Is Not Evolution, It's Dilution': Vimal Kumar Criticises Badminton New 3x15 Scoring System
Kumar said he was “extremely disappointed” with the move, arguing that the existing format ensured a “true level playing field” across playing styles, particularly in singles, which he described as the “very essence” of badminton.
"Extremely disappointed with the Badminton World Federation (BWF) decision to alter the scoring system—and even more concerning is the overwhelming support it has received from Council members. The existing format ensured a true level playing field across playing styles, especially in the premier events—Men’s and Women’s Singles—which have always embodied the very essence of our sport: skill, resilience, fitness, and mental strength. By effectively reducing the duration (and in essence removing one game’s worth of play—18 points), BWF risks diluting what made these events so compelling.
