Top ranking shuttler will miss Olympics

(BEIJING, May 29) -- It will be extremely difficult for Li Yongbo, China's national badminton coach, to decide who will be given a chance to compete in the upcoming Beijing Olympics.

China now boasts all of the top four ranking badminton players in the women's singles event, but IOC regulations state that only three of them can participate in the Games.

The decision will be announced soon.
