Having quelled the challenge of Sweden’s Felix Burestedt, Jorgensen – a former World Championships bronze medallist and Denmark Open champion – confirmed that he was done with international badminton.
“I didn’t know what to expect today. I was afraid I wouldn’t feel the adrenaline or the desire to win, because I already said I was done. And really I am done. This tournament doesn’t make me second guess or anything. It’s just made me feel it’s the right decision. This is definitely the last international tournament I’ll be playing, and it feels good to stand here and say that with peace in my heart,” said Jorgensen.
The Dane revealed he had conflicting emotions while playing his first round match.
