Then she found knitting.
Knitting might now be synonymous with a retired life and as far away from the hustle of a badminton court as imaginable, but Blichfeldt has taken a fancy to it.
The Danish world No.18 turned to knitting during the lockdown in Denmark and now swears by it as a great tool to calm her mind – something that she always had trouble with, on and off the court. Having knitted a cardigan and even impressed her grandmother with it, Blichfeldt has no plans to stop.
