Miscellaneous


After a PodCrash mini-break we are back! This week's guest is British Badminton Men's Singles Number 1 Toby Penty. Likely to be selected for Tokyo 2020, Toby talks about his journey through the sport and the complexities of having a former teammate become one of his coaches. We hear about his expectations for the postponed Tokyo 2020 Olympics - with Badminton having a massive following in Asia, it's likely to be something special. We also hear about Toby's recent diagnosis with alopecia, how lockdown has had a positive influence for him in coming to terms with it, and how sometimes even an enforced break from sport can bring positives.
