"Whenever we go abroad to compete, our coaches always tell us to be careful," said the women's singles world No. 1 Wang Shixian after beating Linda Zechiri from Bulgaria 21-11, 21-14 to reach the last 16.
"I watched it (the riot) on TV, but I don't understand what's happened," said the 21-year-old Chinese player.
Besides the badminton tournament, another Olympic test event is also taking place in London while 24 women's pairs come to test the beach volleyball venue at the Horse Guards Parade from 9-14 August.
However, organizers say they will use two courts instead of one so that spectators, staff and volunteers can leave before dark.
The road cycling Olympic test race is also expected to be held on Sunday as planned.
