Kidambi Srikanth: Pandemi Covid-19 Merampas Kebebasan Saya

  • Kidambi Srikanth merasa pandemi Covid-19 telah merampas kebebasannya sebagai seorang pebulu tangkis.
  • Covid-19 membuat mantan pemain nomor satu dunia itu gagal tampil maksimal, awal 2021.
  • Kidambi Srikanth membidik tiket Olimpiade Tokyo 2020.

SKOR.id - Kidambi Srikanth menyebut bahwa pandemi Covid-19 telah merenggut kebebasan para pebulu tangkis dunia termasuk dirinya.

Tunggal putra India itu mengatakan, Covid-19, sistem bubble saat turnamen, hingga hasil tes yang keliru, membuat kondisi semakin rumit.

Latihan dan pertandingan pun berjalan tidak seperti biasanya karena panitia harus membatasi aktivitas pemain terkait protokol kesehatan. 

"Saya merasa kami kehilangan kebebasan untuk berlatih karena pandemi. Rasanya seperti dirampas," kata eks nomor satu dunia itu.

"Sebelum Covid-19, saya bisa pergi ke pusat kebugaran sesuai keinginan. Tapi, sekarang, saya hanya bisa ke sana ketika diperbolehkan."

Lebih jauh, Srikanth mencontohkan berbagai situasi tak menguntungkan yang dialaminya ketika tampil di Thailand maupun Inggris.

Karena sekamar dengan Sai Praneeth yang dinyatakan positif Covid-19, dia harus mundur di babak kedua Yonex Thailand Open 2021.

Pun saat berlaga di Toyota Thailand Open 2021, Srikanth mengalami mimisan. "Saya tak bisa bertanding lebih banyak di Thailand." 

"Saat di World Tour Finals, saya tampil tanpa latihan. Juga di All England, saya tak bisa berlatih karena ada pemain positif (Covid-19)."

Meski kebebasannya terampas, Srikanth berharap maksimal di tiga turnamen kualifikasi Olimpiade Tokyo 2020 yang masih tersisa. 

Ketiga turnamen kualifikasi tersebut adalah India Open (11-16 Mei), Malaysia Open (25-30 Mei), dan Singapore Open (1-6 Juni).

Srikanth, yang kini di peringkat ke-20 Race to Tokyo, optimistis bisa memperbaiki posisinya jika konsisten setidaknya ke perempat final.

"Bagi saya, yang terpenting saat ini adalah tampil apik di tiga turnamen (kualifikasi Tokyo 2020)," tutur pemain 28 tahun itu.

"Jika bisa tampil di tiga turnamen itu, saya akan bisa ke Olimpiade. Mungkin saya harus main hingga semifinal atau berturut-turut ke perempat final."
