JAKARTA, April 14 (Reuters) - Badminton World Federation (BWF) should work harder to stamp out match-fixing in the sport, former doubles world champion Rexy Mainaky said.
The 1996 Olympic gold medallist, now head of athlete development in the Indonesian badminton federation, was concerned after two Danish shuttlers said in October they had been approached via social media to fix matches at the Japan Open.
World number 11 Hans-Kristian Vittinghus and doubles player Kim Astrup said the person who spoke to them said matches had been successfully fixed at the high-ranking Singapore Open and Thomas Cup.
"We have easy access to follow matches online or via live streaming, unlike in my era.
