After bird droppings, stray animals and air-quality concerns overshadowed badminton's India Open in New Delhi earlier this year, organisers of the flagship World Championships said on Tuesday the city was ready to deliver a smoother spectacle.
The August 17 to 23 tournament will be at the Indira Gandhi Indoor Stadium, with the draw taking place on Wednesday. The Badminton World Federation (BWF) and local organisers, Badminton Association of India (BAI), said preparations were on track.
