Hyderabad, July 18 (IBNS) Indian badminton icon Saina Nehwal has pulled out of the upcoming Commonwealth Games in Glasgow, media reports said on Friday.

According to reports, she is pulling out of the tournament due to injury.

" After her unexpected triumph at the Australian Open Super Series last month, Saina was a favourite to win gold in Glasgow. But the shuttler, who sustained blister injuries on both her feet, took some time to recover and was not able to practise properly. In fact, she did not hit the court for about a week after her return from Australia. It is also learnt that she is suffering from a knee problem," The Times of India reported.

She had won the CWG gold in 2010.

The CWG will be held from July 23 to Aug 3.
