Indira Gandhi Indoor Stadium Changes Pose New Challenge for Wang Zhi Yi

The newly renovated Indira Gandhi Indoor Stadium has introduced a noticeable draft on the court, a factor Wang Zhi Yi experienced during her first training session. She described feeling a light breeze that altered shuttle flight, requiring players to adapt quickly. "The stadium has changed a lot, and that is a good thing," Wang said. "We need to adjust to the airflow conditions to perform at our best."

Wang’s preparation includes acclimatizing to these conditions while maintaining focus on her own game. She reiterated that over‑thinking future opponents or the overall tournament picture would distract from the immediate task at hand. By concentrating on her own preparation and staying adaptable, Wang hopes to deliver her best performance and, ultimately, chase the championship title.
