Yiğit, a European Games bronze medallist, booked her place in the second round in Birmingham with a comeback triumph against France’s Marie Batomene yesterday.

But her hopes of extending her run were dashed when she forced to withdraw after being notified that she needed to undergo 10 days in isolation.

The news comes after the Badminton World Federation (BWF) confirmed the withdrawal of the entire Indonesian team last night.

The BWF and Badminton England said Yiğit was on the same inbound flight from Turkey to the United Kingdom as the Indonesian team and had been contacted by the UK Government’s National Health Service Test and Trace service this morning.

"This is a very unfortunate circumstance and something BWF and Badminton England did not wish for the Indonesian team and Yiğit from Turkey," a joint statement from BWF and Badminton England read.

"We can confirm impassioned attempts were made by Badminton England to gain exemption for the players and Indonesian team members, and to explore alternative options to guarantee their participation.

"However, the UK Government’s legislation is in place to, first and foremost, protect the British public against COVID-19 and their decision was final and non-negotiable."

Yamaguchi will next face India’s fifth seed Pusarla Venkata Sindhu who defeated Denmark’s Line Christophersen 21-12, 21-11.

There was success for fellow Dane Mia Blichfeldt, though, as the seventh seed saw off Germany’s Yvonne Li 21-16, 21-17.

Unseeded American Beiwen Zhang came from behind to defeat Thailand’s Supanida Katethong 7-21, 21-13, 21-9.

Second seed Nozomi Okuhara of Japan defeated Bulgarian Lina Zetchiri 21-6, 21-13 to set up a meeting with Thailand’s eighth seed Busanan Ongbamrungphan who overcame Japanese player Aya Ohori 21-19, 21-15.

Playing in his first competition since recovering from coronavirus, Japan’s men’s world number one Kento Momota booked his place in the quarter-final.

Momota defeated India’s HS Prannoy and will now look forward to facing Malaysian sixth seed Zii Jia who knocked out Denmark’s Hans-Kristian Solberg Vittinghus in a 21-12, 21-13 triumph.

India’s Lakshya Sen beat France’s Thomas Rouxel 21-18, 21-17 to seal a last-eight tie with Dutchman Mark Caljouw who produced a comprehensive display to down Ireland’s Nhat Nguyen 21-18, 21-7.

Danish seventh seed Rasmus Gemke was the biggest name to fall at the second round stage after losing to Japan’s Kanta Tsuneyama 21-15, 18-21, 21-14.

Tsuneyama will next face another Danish player in third seed Anders Antonsen who triumphed 22-20, 21-10 against Indian Sameer Verma.

Thailand’s Siithikom Thammasin profited from Indonesian fifth seed Jonathan Christie’s withdrawal as he moved through to the quarter-finals where he will take on defending champion Viktor Axelsen.

The Danish second seed was forced to battle hard as he came from a game down to beat India’s Bhamidipati Sai Praneeth 15-21, 21-12, 21-12.

Indonesia’s withdrawal has resulted in the loss of the top two seeds in the men’s doubles with Marcus Fernaldi Gideon and Kevin Sanjaya Sukamuljo and Mohammed Ahsan and Hendra Setiawan pulling out.

Japanese third seeds Takeshi Kamura and Keigo Sonoda will hope to make the most of the absence of the two teams as they defeated compatriots Aki Koga and Taichi Saito 21-18, 21-8 in the second round.
