A glimpse of hope for Thilini


Sri Lanka’s Top woman shuttler Thilini Jayasinghe, who competed at the Last Olympic Game in Beijing, has a glimpse of hope in making her way to the London Olympics this year. According to the selections, done by the world governing body for Badminton, she has been included in the stand bye list at third position.
Though the selections were made by the governing body, it is left for the respective governing bodies of participating countries to make the final decision on players representing the Olympic Games.
In the event of any three competitors failed to confirm their participation, it is the stand byes who fill these slots. It is left to be seen whether Thilini will stand a chance to present herself for a second time in Olympics.
Respective governing bodies have to confirm their athletics on or before May 10.
