The 2012 London Olympics bronze medallist on Tuesday, revealed that she and her shuttler husband P Kashyap have pulled out of the upcoming Denmark Open, which restarts at Odense from October 13.

I withdrew from Denmark Open. I decided that I will start the season from January only with the Asian tour," Saina, the London Olympics bronze-medallist, said. Asked if she has any fitness concerns, Saina, a two-time Commonwealth Games gold medallist, said: "There is no injury issue but if three tournaments were there it would have made sense...I thought directly from January, I can go for the Asian tour."

The husband-wife duo had earlier sent their entries for the USD 750,000 (R5.50 crore) tournament and also submitted their consent letter to the Badminton Association of India (BAI) last month for the same.
