SCORING SYSTEM DEBATE
Scoring system has been a hot topic since some people believe the current best of three, 21-point format makes the match always too long.
"Definitely, the scoring system has been debated, and the whole philosophy is to have more peaks and more intensity of the game, and to reach the end point faster, that is the whole philosophy," said Larsen.
"How long the game should be? That is still to be discussed. The whole idea is to show intact with our audience and to capture them and get faster to the end point. Create the the intensity and extent, that is it."
However, the president said personally he favoured the new system.
"I personally favour shorter or more peaks to the game and faster to the end. I would prefer five sets to 11 or in that range, it could be settings as 15 as you say," said Larsen.
He also suggested that some rules from tennis could be learned to add interest into the game.
"If there could be other idea like a tie-break like tennis, so that is what we still need to discuss and debate before we put anything forward that we need to investigate."
NO BIG CHANGE IN RIO
This May saw the start of Rio Olympic qualification period. According to Larsen, BWF will not risk changing the rules in 2016 Games. To have a full house in Rio is a goal.
However, in the long run, BWF could seek to reduce the games shorter but more attractive.
Larsen also hailed the longer careers of badminton players than in some other sports.
"It is a game quite physically, quite demanding. You need to train a lot to be on that level as Lin Dan, you also need skill, it is the whole DNA of the sport," he said.
"For senior players, such as the 60s can also play very well, so I will not change that. I would keep that, physical endurance of the sport and also the technical element. "
