| Other information | CRITICAL OF BADMINTON SET-UP IN INDIA After losing to Chinese opponent Xin Liu at the 2010 Badminton Asia Championship, she compared the domestic structure of badminton in India to China, whose players are more dominant in the sport. “You cannot take any Chinese player lightly. There is ample evidence of Chinese qualifiers winning major tournaments like Super Series. This is because they have a strong domestic set up. Even the top players there are not allowed to skip domestic tournaments, so the juniors compete against world class players and when they get a chance they make the most of it... Our domestic set up is not that structured and we don’t have all our top players participating in the domestic tournaments,” she said.
