It was announced at the Japan Badminton Council held on March 12th (Japan does not have the final say from the supervisor, but from a vote by each council member) that the once-banned Japanese badminton brother Momota Kento will be lifted from the tournament on May 15th. Suspended, he will start from scratch on May 27 to participate in the Japanese badminton ranking tournament. Before being suspended, Momota Kento was ranked second in the world. He was suspended in April last year for a period of one year and one month. Because of being suspended, Japan's number one badminton player also missed the Rio Olympics.
Momota Kento
The reason why he was banned is: from October 2014 to January 2015, he went to the casino with the famous Japanese player Kenichi Tianmi and gambled 6 times in total. It was discovered in early 2016. The main offender, Kenichi Tianmi, was permanently expelled from the national team in October 2015 due to his bad behavior.

At the meeting on the 12th, Momota Kento also issued an apology: "The social scandal occurred in April last year, and I deeply feel the impact on everyone. Public figures are improving their technical level. At the same time, we should understand our responsibilities to society. As a social person, this kind of thing will never happen again. I hope to slowly restore everyone's trust in me by improving my technical level. "

If China. Badminton players have also made such mistakes. I wonder if China's badminton head coach Li Yongbo dares to be cruel.
Wealth cannot be lascivious, nor can a base person be left behind. I am a base editor!
