Neslihan Yigit feels that his expulsion from All England 2021 is unfair. Even so, Yigit hopes that the COVID-19 pandemic will end quickly and that the tournament will develop normally.

Yigit’s name became synonymous in Indonesia when it was dragged in the case of the forced withdrawal of the Indonesian contingent from All of England. Indonesia was forced to withdraw because one of the passengers on a plane tested positive for COVID-19.

As a result, the UK health authority, the National Health Service (NHS), asked the Indonesian team to self-isolate for 10 days. This means that all Indonesian players will miss All England 2021 which ends this weekend.

Well, coincidentally, there is also a Turkish badminton player, Neslihan Yigit, who shares the same plane with Indonesia, but he did not drop. Yigit even qualified for the second round after defeating the French representative, Marie Batomene, with a score of 13-21, 21-19 and 21-17.

The plan is for Yigit to face Akane Yamaguchi of Japan on Thursday morning (3/18/2021) local time. However, due to strong protests from the Indonesian contingent, Yigit was also disqualified and asked to self-quarantine as well.

A few hours after being crossed out, Yigit revealed her heart on her Instagram account, @neslihanyigits. According to him, this withdrawal was unfair because there was a team that had contact with corona positive patients, but they were still able to play after testing negative.

Expect this pandemic to end quickly so that everything returns to normal.

“I want to tell you about my current situation. I have prepared for the Yonex All England tournament, which is one of the most prestigious badminton events and I won in the first round. For reasons beyond my control, I was finally removed from this tournament and Also next in the tournament. The Orleans Masters in France next week, “Yigit said.

“I think this is unfair. Because all the players and tournament staff who have had contact with COVID-19 patients in the last five days can still play. Meanwhile, the Indonesia team and I are isolated in our rooms. I hope the pandemic will end quickly and we can all be free. Show up and compete in a healthy way. “
