– Ramdhani, Haynes in action today

The Guyanese male badminton players in Suriname felt the sting of defeat yesterday as they were eliminated on the opening day of the Suriname International Championship.

Frank Waddell, Nkosi Beaton, and Jonathan Debidin were the men to be knocked out from the round of 16 qualifiers.

Waddell played Suriname’s Joshua Lan and lost in a fighting set of three, losing 10-21 before rallying in the second game to bounce back 22-20. However, Lan would get the better of him in the next set (17-21) to seal qualification.
