JAKARTA, May 6: Eight-time All England champion Rudy Hartono has called for the Indonesia Badminton Association (PBSI) to get tougher on young players to push them to greater heights with the London Olympics looming.
“What makes today's game different is that matches are more competitive now compared to years ago, so you have to work harder and not give up easily,” he said at the PBSI's 60th anniversary celebration. “We won with minimal support from the PBSI.
Now shuttlers have all the things that we didn't have during our time,” he said.
