Paris Olympics 2024 Live Updates: Several badminton shuttlers are finding it difficult to see the shuttlecock while playing at the Paris Games. For the unversed, the shuttlecock or birdie can move faster than projectiles in any other racket sport. In usual badminton tournaments, spectators are kept in the dark and a spotlight shines on the court for the players. This has not been the case in Paris. The atmosphere at Porte de La Chapelle Arena is generally loud, full of full of thunderous chants, and drum rolls and on occasions, fans also make waves at the venue. Players who featured at the Tokyo Games under quieter COVID conditions are used to playing in darker arenas.

"What a beautiful arena - it was fantastic to see red shirts and flags and stuff, it was phenomenal. It's nice that it's bright on the spectator," said Anders Antonsen, who played his first Olympic game in Tokyo. He is also the world number three men's singles player. "But it's also confusing, actually, to see the shuttlecock sometimes because there's so many different colours right behind. In terms of having a clear vision on the shuttle, I would prefer it to be dark. But it's also very beautiful to be able to see them."
