2021 badminton world championships moved to avoid conflict with Tokyo Olympics

The 2021 badminton world championships will now start in November to avoid clashing with the rescheduled Tokyo Olympics.

The Badminton World Federation says the event will remain in Huelva, Spain, and be held Nov. 29-Dec. 5.

BWF president Poul-Erik Hoyer says the two main events can now go ahead "with equal fairness for everyone.''
