The Badminton World Federation (BWF) will be experimenting with a new scoring system, moving away from the 21 points, best of 3 system to the 15 points, best of 3 system, beginning April 2025 in selected tournaments. According to them, this system will result in faster and more entertaining matches, and that, in turn, will lead to better scheduling for players. Injury concerns will also be reduced with shorter matches. But the reaction to this proposal has been mixed, with some for it and some against it. We unpack the whole scenario with sports journalist, Fabian Mark Peter.

In our Peak Performance segment, we speak to Sanjay Kumar, founder of Madfoxx Training, a strength and conditioning based outfit that conducts its workout sessions outdoors! Why did they adopt this model, and what it’s like to build a fitness community that enjoys working out in public? Tune in to hear his story.
