Shuttlecock Fight! Shuttlecock Fight!

And, yes, we're incredibly mature here at the HQ since we just like saying "shuttlecock..."

The men's doubles final at the Canada Open didn't go as expected since, well, a fight broke out when it was supposed to be taking place...

A doubles team that had broken up was now facing each other on opposite sides of the net, and it didn't get very far...

Bodin Issara lunged at Maneepong Jongjit up there. Issara needed two stitches, and claimed Jongjit hit him with a badminton racket. They had already received warnings from the referee following a verbal exchange.

The world federation has launched their own investigation...

"The events surrounding the conclusion of this match will be thoroughly investigated by the BWF," the federation said Monday in a statement. "The world governing body has procedures in place to deal with such situations and this matter will be referred to the Disciplinary Committee."

Reminds the HQ of this...
