    Badminton WC: Why Was 29-30 Enough To Decide The Set -- The Golden-point Rule That Dented India’s Thriller

    Indira Gandhi Indoor Stadium: A scoreline of 30-29 is not something badminton fans see every day, but it proved decisive for Ashith Surya and Amrutha Pramuthesh as their BWF World Championships debut turned into a 71-minute battle against Turkey’s Emre Sonmez and Yasemen Bektas at the Indira Gandhi Indoor Stadium in New Delhi on Tuesday.

    The Indians had taken the opening game 21-16, but after being locked at 29-29 in the second, they lost the next rally and the game 30-29. The Turkish pair then held their nerve to win the decider 24-22 and seal the match.

    For those watching the contest, the 29-30 scoreline raised an obvious question: How could Turkey win a badminton game without having a two-point advantage? The answer lies in the sport’s built-in limit.
