Indonesia has pulled out of the prestigious Thomas and Uber Cups out of concerns over the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, badminton officials confirmed Saturday. The Indonesian Badminton Association (PBSI) said its players were worried about contracting the virus at the tournaments, due to be held in Denmark next month. “The handling of the outbreak both in Indonesia and other countries has yet to see any improvement,” PBSI secretary-general Achmad Budiharto said in a statement announcing the withdrawal. “This situation makes players worried,” he added.
