India's star shuttler Saina Nehwal has pulled out of the All England Open but the reason for her withdrawal is still unknown.

The Olympic bronze medalist has been replaced by Singapore’s Yeo Jia Min.

Saina became the first Indian woman shuttler in 2015 to reach the finals of the All England Open but lost to Marín in the final.

So far, only two Indians – Prakash Padukone in 1980 and Pullela Gopichand in 2001 have won the prestigious tournament.
