The Badminton World Federation (BWF) can confirm it is reviewing events that transpired during the HYLO Open 2022 men’s singles final between Chou Tien Chen (TPE) and Anthony Sinisuka Ginting (INA) on Sunday 6 November.

BWF trusts that all umpires endeavour to make the best call he or she can make in real time.

However, even if a mistake occasionally occurs, a referee cannot overrule the decision of an umpire on a point of fact and an umpire’s decision stands as final.
