Hyderabad: Defending champion Saina Nehwal has pulled out of Commonwealth Games starting next week in Glasgow. Saina is yet to recover from the blisters on her feet she got after the Australian Open Super Series.
This comes as a major blow to India’s chance for a gold at the Commonwealth, but Saina was not willing to go in to Glasgow under prepared.
“There is no point in risking further injury by going in without match fitness and could not have able to retain properly for the CWG. “Rather now I will prepare for the World Championship and Asian Games,” Saina said.
