UID:26677-1791849600-1792367999@badmintonworldtour.com SUMMARY:2026 Malaysia Super 100 DESCRIPTION:Updated on October 5\, 2026\n\n\nThe Malaysia Super 100 is a newly established annual international badminton tournament held in Malaysia and organized by the Badminton Association of Malaysia (BAM). \n\n\n\nTournament Overview & Position on the Tour\n\n\n\nIntroduced as part of the Badminton World Federation’s (BWF) expanded tournament calendar\, the event occupies a key role in the sport’s global structure: \n\n\n\n\nBWF Tour Super 100 Grade: The tournament is classified as a Grade 2\, Level 6 event within the BWF World Tour structure. While it sits just below the primary BWF World Tour (Super 300 to Super 1000 events)\, performance here contributes directly to players’ world ranking points.\n\n\n\nDevelopmental Pathway: Designed as an essential stepping stone\, the Malaysia Super 100 provides rising international talents and top local circuit players the opportunity to earn crucial ranking points and compete for a share of a $120\,000 USD total prize pool.\n\n\n\n\nHistory & Venues\n\n\n\n\nInaugural Edition (2023): The tournament made its official debut from October 31 to November 5\, 2023\, at the Titiwangsa Stadium in Kuala Lumpur\, drawing competitors across all five primary disciplines (Men’s/Women’s Singles\, Men’s/Women’s Doubles\, and Mixed Doubles).\n\n\n\nContinued Growth: Alongside tournaments like the higher-tier Malaysia Open (Super 1000) and Malaysia Masters (Super 500)\, the Super 100 further solidifies Malaysia’s status as one of global badminton’s premier host nations.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n\n

UID:25495-1791849600-1792367999@badmintonworldtour.com SUMMARY:2026 Denmark Open DESCRIPTION:Updated on October 5\, 2026\n\n\nThe Denmark Open (historically known as the Danish Open) is one of badminton’s oldest and most prestigious annual tournaments. First established in 1935 and organized by Badminton Denmark\, the event features a rich history that has seen it hosted across various Danish cities—including Copenhagen and Aalborg—before settling into its long-term home in Odense. \n\n\n\nAs the international circuit evolved\, the tournament remained at the forefront of elite competition: \n\n\n\n\nBWF Super Series (2011–2017): Under the previous Badminton World Federation structure\, the tournament was classified as a Super Series event.\n\n\n\nBWF World Tour Super 750 (2018–2026): With the introduction of the BWF World Tour structure in 2018\, the Denmark Open was designated as one of the elite Super 750 tournaments.\n\n\n\n\nLooking Ahead: BWF Super 1000 Upgrade (Starting 2027)\n\n\n\nBeginning with the 2027–2030 BWF World Tour cycle\, the Badminton World Federation officially promoted the Denmark Open to Super 1000 status. Joining top-tier events like the All England Open\, Indonesia Open\, China Open\, and Malaysia Open\, this upgrade elevates the tournament to the absolute pinnacle of the tour. As a Super 1000 event\, the Denmark Open will offer: \n\n\n\n\nHigher Prize Money: A minimum prize pool raised to $2.0 million USD.\n\n\n\nMaximum Ranking Points: The maximum allotment of world-ranking points for champions (12\,000+ points).\n\n\n\nTop-Tier Field: Mandatory participation requirements for the world’s top-ranked singles players and doubles pairs.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n\n

Venue Guide & Transit Logistics: Quaycentre\n\n\n\nThe traditional home of the tournament is the multi-purpose Quaycentre\, situated inside the world-class sports precinct of Sydney Olympic Park in New South Wales\, Australia (Official Website: www.quaycentre.com.au). Celebrated for its intimate seating layout and brilliant indoor acoustics\, the stadium brings spectators close to the boundary lines\, creating an unforgettable\, high-energy atmosphere. \n\n\n\nHow to Get There\n\n\n\nSydney Olympic Park features premier\, purpose-built transportation infrastructure designed to handle large event crowds. Spectators are strongly encouraged to take advantage of Sydney’s comprehensive public transit network to ensure seamless travel: \n\n\n\n\nBy Train (Recommended): The most efficient transit route is via the Sydney Trains network. Fans can board a dedicated Olympic Park shuttle service operating regularly from Lidcombe Station\, arriving in under 10 minutes. From Olympic Park Station\, the Quaycentre is an easy\, scenic walk along Olympic Boulevard.\n\n\n\nBy Bus: Multiple regular state bus routes directly service the Olympic Park precinct\, dropping passengers off within a short walking distance of the primary sports complexes.\n\n\n\nBy Ferry: For a unique\, panoramic journey\, travelers can take a river ferry service from Circular Quay to the Sydney Olympic Park Wharf\, transferring seamlessly to connecting precinct buses that link straight to the arena.\n\n\n\nBy Car: Drivers can access the precinct via major arterial motorways.

While the inside of the Quaycentre is fully climate-controlled\, slight courtside drafts can occur during long sessions\, making layered clothing the ideal choice.\n\n\n\nAcoustics & Sound: Because of the stadium’s compact design\, the sharp sound of racket strikes and crowd cheers amplifies quickly.

As a Super 1000 event\, it has always been the jewel of the badminton world—often dubbed the “unofficial World Championship” due to its electric atmosphere and prestige. However\, the 2026 edition is set to carry extra weight with the historic return of the Djarum Foundation as a primary strategic partner and organizer\, signaling a revival of the “golden era” of event presentation in Jakarta. \n\n\n\nTournament Essentials\n\n\n\n\nOfficial Title: Polytron Indonesia Open 2026 (BWF World Tour Super 1000)\n\n\n\nDates: June 2 – June 7\, 2026\n\n\n\nHost City: Jakarta\, Indonesia\n\n\n\nVenue: Istora Senayan (Istora Gelora Bung Karno)\n\n\n\nPrize Money: US$1\,450\,000 (Approx.

Their departure left a gap in the tournament’s presentation style. Their return in 2026 is expected to: \n\n\n\n\nElevate the Fan Experience: Djarum is known for integrating live music\, cultural bazaars\, and interactive fan zones that rival major music festivals.\n\n\n\nBoost Production Quality: Expect world-class lighting\, court presentation\, and broadcast values.\n\n\n\nSupport Local Talent: Their involvement often correlates with a renewed focus on scouting and supporting young Indonesian shuttlers on the big stage.\n\n\n\n\n2025 Edition Recap: The Defending Champions\n\n\n\nTo understand the stakes of 2026\, we must look at the reigning kings and queens who conquered Jakarta in 2025. These athletes will enter the 2026 tournament with a target on their backs. \n\n\n\n\nMen’s Singles (MS): Anders Antonsen (Denmark)\n\nThe Feat: Antonsen finally captured the Istora crown after years of being a crowd favorite\, showcasing his tactical brilliance to defeat his opponents in a thrilling final.\n\n\n\n\n\nWomen’s Singles (WS): An Se-young (South Korea)\n\nThe Feat: Continuing her dominance\, An Se-young proved too consistent and physically superior\, cementing her status as the era’s defining female player.\n\n\n\n\n\nMen’s Doubles (MD): Kim Won-ho & Seo Seung-jae (South Korea)\n\nThe Feat: The Koreans shocked the home favorites and top seeds with their speed and defense\, proving to be the most versatile pair on tour.\n\n\n\n\n\nWomen’s Doubles (WD): Liu Shengshu & Tan Ning (China)\n\nThe Feat: This young Chinese pair overwhelmed veterans with their sheer power and attacking style\, signaling a changing of the guard in women’s doubles.\n\n\n\n\n\nMixed Doubles (XD): Thom Gicquel & Delphine Delrue (France)\n\nThe Feat: A historic win for Europe in a discipline usually dominated by Asia. Their victory was a masterclass in tactical discipline and composure.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFull Competition Schedule\n\n\n\nThe tournament follows a standard six-day progression from the opening rounds to the finals\, though specific BWF regulations regarding players coming from the Singapore Open have created a unique split in the first round. \n\n\n\nHere is the official daily schedule for the Polytron Indonesia Open 2026: \n\n\n\nDateDayEvent RoundCourtsDoors OpenStart TimeJune 2TuesdayFirst Round (Top Half)308:3009:00June 3WednesdayFirst Round (Bottom Half)308:3009:00June 4ThursdayRound of 16 (R16)308:3009:00June 5FridayQuarterfinals (Session I)208:3009:00June 5FridayQuarterfinals (Session II)213:0013:30June 6SaturdaySemifinals111:3012:00June 7SundayFinals113:3014:00\n\n\n\nKey Scheduling Notes: \n\n\n\n\nThe Singapore Factor: A specific rule states that all finalists from the KFF Singapore Badminton Open 2026 (which concludes just before this tournament) will receive a slight reprieve. They will play their first-round matches on Wednesday\, June 3\, rather than Tuesday .\n\n\n\nDraw Dynamics: Fans should be aware of the “Seed Withdrawal Move.” If a seeded player withdraws\, positions in the draw may shift significantly during the Team Managers’ Meeting. A player initially placed in the Top Half could be moved to the Bottom Half (and vice versa) to balance the bracket.\n\n\n\nSession Splits: Friday features a split session. Morning ticket holders will see the first batch of quarterfinals\, while afternoon attendees will catch the rest\, starting at 13:30.\n\n\n\n\nWhere to Watch: Broadcast Schedule\n\n\n\nFor fans unable to make the trip to Jakarta\, extensive coverage is available. The tournament will be produced for international broadcast\, featuring high-definition feeds from multiple courts. \n\n\n\nGlobally\, the BWF provides feeds to various networks. However\, for Indonesian fans\, the broadcasting rights have been secured by RCTI. The network will air the matches live starting at 09:00 WIB daily . \n\n\n\nHere is the official TV Broadcast production schedule: \n\n\n\nDateDayTV CourtsMatches (C1)Matches (C)Start TimeJune 2Tuesday210–09:00June 3Wednesday210809:00June 4Thursday210809:00June 5Friday (AM)22209:00June 5Friday (PM)28613:30June 6Saturday110–12:00June 7Sunday15–14:00\n\n\n\nIn addition to the international feed\, domestic-only TV matches may be produced for the local audience.

For cord-cutters\, live streaming is available via Vidio and Vision+. \n\n\n\nPrize Money Breakdown: US$ 1.45 Million\n\n\n\nMoney talks\, and in 2026\, it is shouting. The total prize fund of $1\,450\,000 is distributed down to the Last 32 round\, ensuring that even players who lose their first match take home a paycheck. \n\n\n\nHowever\, there is a distinct financial hierarchy. Interestingly\, Doubles pairs take home a higher total purse amount than Singles winners\, though this is split between two athletes. \n\n\n\nSingles Prize Money (Men’s & Women’s): \n\n\n\n\nWinner: $101\,500\n\n\n\nRunner-up: $49\,300\n\n\n\nSemi-finalist: $20\,300\n\n\n\nQuarter-finalist: $7\,975\n\n\n\nLast 16: $4\,350\n\n\n\nLast 32: $1\,450\n\n\n\n\nDoubles Prize Money (MD\, WD\, XD) – Per Pair: \n\n\n\n\nWinners: $107\,300\n\n\n\nRunners-up: $50\,750\n\n\n\nSemi-finalists: $20\,300\n\n\n\nQuarter-finalists: $9\,062.50\n\n\n\nLast 16: $4\,712.50\n\n\n\nLast 32: $1\,450\n\n\n\n\nNote: No local tax is applied to the prize money. \n\n\n\nA Brief History: Titans of the Indonesia Open\n\n\n\nEstablished in 1982\, the Indonesia Open is one of the oldest and most historic tournaments in Asia. It has witnessed the evolution of badminton from the 15-point scoring system to the current rally-point era. \n\n\n\nThe tournament is famous for being incredibly difficult to defend; the raucous crowd can lift home players to impossible victories or crumble the focus of visiting legends. \n\n\n\nMost Successful Players & Pairs\n\n\n\nThe “Hall of Fame” for the Indonesia Open is dominated by legends who thrived on the chaotic energy of Jakarta: \n\n\n\n\nMen’s Singles Kings (6 Titles):\n\nArdy Wiranata (INA): The defensive wall of Indonesia ruled the 90s.\n\n\n\nTaufik Hidayat (INA): The “Prince of Istora” whose backhand became folklore.\n\n\n\nLee Chong Wei (MAS): remarkably\, a non-Indonesian who mastered the windy conditions of Istora to equal the record.\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Queen of Jakarta (5 Titles):\n\nSusi Susanti (INA): The Golden Bride dominated the late 80s and 90s\, setting a benchmark for Women’s Singles that stands to this day.\n\n\n\n\n\nMixed Doubles Supremacy (6 Titles):\n\nMinarti Timur & Tri Kusharjanto (INA): This pair (playing with various partners but most successful together) made the Mixed Doubles discipline their own fortress during their prime.\n\n\n\n\n\nMen’s Doubles Legacy:\n\nThe pairing of Ricky Subagja & Rexy Mainaky and later Minarti Timur (in mixed) set the standard. More recently\, Marcus Fernaldi Gideon & Kevin Sanjaya Sukamuljo (The Minions) created a modern dynasty\, though they often found the Indonesia Open title elusive compared to other events\, highlighting the tournament’s immense difficulty.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nConclusion\n\n\n\nThe 2026 Indonesia Open is not just a tournament; it is a festival of national pride and world-class athleticism. With US$1.45 million on the line\, the return of the Djarum Foundation’s organizational prowess\, and the world’s best players converging on Jakarta\, it is poised to be the most spectacular edition of the decade.

Lin’s victory in straight games was a clinical performance\, making him the first player from his nation to win this specific category. \n\n\n\nWomen’s Singles: Wang Zhiyi Dethrones the Queen\n\n\n\nIn the Women’s Singles\, Wang Zhiyi achieved what many thought impossible: stopping the “An Se-young Era.” The defending champion and world No. 1\, An Se-young\, entered the final with a 36-match winning streak. Wang\, who had lost her previous ten encounters against An\, played a near-flawless tactical match to win in two games. This victory re-established China’s dominance in the singles discipline and proved that even the most consistent champions are vulnerable to high-pressure precision. \n\n\n\nThe Doubles Dominance\n\n\n\nThe doubles categories saw a blend of successful defenses and new arrivals. Kim Won-ho and Seo Seung-jae became the first Men’s Doubles pair in decades to successfully defend their All England title\, surviving a three-game thriller against Malaysia’s Aaron Chia and Soh Wooi Yik. \n\n\n\nIn the Women’s Doubles\, the youthful power of Liu Shengshu and Tan Ning was too much for the experienced Korean pair of Baek and Lee. Meanwhile\, the Mixed Doubles final saw Ye Hong-wei and Nicole Gonzales Chan claim a historic victory over France’s Gicquel and Delrue\, marking a massive milestone for badminton in Chinese Taipei. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nQuick Facts\n\n\n\nFeatureDetailTournament NameYonex All England Open Badminton Championships 2026DatesMarch 3 – March 8\, 2026LevelBWF World Tour Super 1000Host CityBirmingham\, EnglandVenueUtilita Arena BirminghamTotal Prize MoneyUS$ 1\,450\,000SurfaceYonex Court Mats (Indoor Hard)\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPrize Money & Ranking Points\n\n\n\nAs a Super 1000 event\, the stakes were incredibly high for the players’ world rankings and bank accounts.

Before the BWF World Championships began in 1977\, winning the All England was universally considered winning the “World Championship.” \n\n\n\nEven today\, it retains a mystic aura. It was held at the Wembley Arena for decades before moving to Birmingham in 1994. The tournament has seen legends like Rudy Hartono (who won 8 titles)\, Lin Dan\, and Lee Chong Wei grace its courts. For players\, the All England is “The One to Win.” The prestige of the white trophy\, the history of the venue\, and the knowledgeable crowd make it unique. \n\n\n\nThe 2026 edition proved that while the names on the trophy change\, the prestige of the “All England Champion” title remains the ultimate benchmark of greatness in the sport of badminton.

Tournament organizers announced a new initiative aimed at reducing plastic waste and promoting environmentally responsible practices throughout the event. \nStarting that year\, disposable PET bottled water was no longer supplied to players and officials. Instead\, every participant received a reusable sports water bottle upon arrival. In support of this shift\, large water dispensers were placed across the venue — including the competition hall\, practice courts and warm-up areas — to make it simple for players\, staff and volunteers to refill their bottles whenever needed. \nWhile the tournament did not hand out 500ml plastic water bottles as in past editions\, there were no restrictions on bringing or purchasing other beverages inside the venue. Participants and spectators could still buy drinks of their choice on site or bring their own bottles from other brands. \nOrganizers clarified that the change was driven purely by environmental sustainability goals and was not connected to the promotion of any beverage company. They called on everyone involved — from athletes to coaches and spectators — to actively support the new system and help reduce the event’s ecological footprint. \nBy taking these steps\, the 2025 Korea Open aimed to lead by example in the sporting world\, showing that a premier international badminton tournament could deliver high-level competition while also caring for the planet. \nChen Qingchen and Jia Yifan Reunite\nOlympic champions Chen Qingchen and Jia Yifan were back together on court at the 2025 Korea Open\, rekindling one of badminton’s most successful partnerships. The four-time world champions\, who had claimed gold at the Paris 2024 Games\, had mostly gone their separate ways since their Olympic triumph but returned as fifth seeds in Suwon. \nTheir appearances as a pair had been rare over the past year. After earning an automatic berth at the BWF World Tour Finals the previous December\, the duo also played together at the 2025 Badminton Asia Championships and made a brief showing at the BWF Sudirman Cup Finals\, where they contested only one match. \nIn the interim\, Jia had forged a winning partnership with Zhang Shuxian\, capturing the China Masters title the previous Sunday. Chen had endured a quieter spell\, unable to replicate that level of success alongside Wang Tingge or Keng Shuliang. \nThe Korea Open raised the question of whether the two stars could recapture their past dominance. Winners of this tournament two years earlier\, Chen and Jia opened their campaign against Hsu Ya-ching and Sung Yu-hsuan\, with a possible quarter-final meeting against Japan’s Yuki Fukushima and Mayu Matsumoto. \nThe draw itself was wide open. With several top combinations absent\, Japan’s Rin Iwanaga and Kie Nakanishi had been installed as top seeds\, while Kim Hye-jeong and Kong Hee-yong — runners-up at the China Masters — were seeded second. All eyes were on whether Chen and Jia could turn their reunion into another memorable chapter in their storied careers. \n2024 Champions\nAll of last year’s Korea Open title holders were set to return for the new edition\, except in the women’s doubles category. Jeong Na-eun\, who lifted the trophy alongside Kim Hye-jeong last season\, was entered this time with Lee Yeon-woo\, while Kim paired up with Kong Hee-yong. \nMeanwhile\, Korea’s reigning Olympic women’s singles champion An Se-young headed the field as the top seed\, and the country’s men’s doubles world champions\, Kim Won-ho and Seo Seung-jae\, were also slated to play in front of a home crowd as top seeds — setting the stage for a particularly exciting tournament.[mfn]“2025 Korea Open Draws”.

Elevated to the top spot in the draw\, Vitidsarn lined up against Singapore’s Jason Teh\, while Naraoka — whose lone BWF World Tour crown came at this very event in 2023 — was set a sterner test against local contender Weng Hongyang. \nRedemption on Court\nFor Thailand’s Ruttanapak Oupthong and Jhenicha Sudjaipraparat\, the 2025 China Masters draw was more than a list of names. It represented a chance to overturn a painful history and prove how far they had come. They had met French star duo Thom Gicquel and Delphine Delrue twice before and lost on both occasions. This time\, though\, the Thai combination arrived better prepared\, with weeks of planning and a quiet confidence guiding them into the arena. \nThe match opened with the French pair asserting themselves\, taking the first game 21–12. Yet Oupthong and Sudjaipraparat held firm. True to Sudjaipraparat’s steady approach of “one step at a time\,” they reset mentally and stayed in the contest. That mindset paid off in the second game. Longer rallies\, sharper placement\, and tireless movement saw the Thai duo shift momentum and even the match at 21–16. \nThe third game turned into a tense test of composure. Down 11–9 at the break\, the world No.16s clung to their plan and waited for an opening. At 14-all\, a decisive five-point surge broke the deadlock\, and from there they controlled the closing stretch to seal a memorable victory. \nHeartbreak in Shenzhen\nLee Zii Jia had still been chasing his first BWF World Tour triumph since his quarter-final run at the Orleans Masters in early March. Coming off consecutive first-round defeats\, the Malaysian shuttler was forced to withdraw from his opening match at the Super 750 China Masters against world No.16 Lin Chun-yi of Chinese Taipei. Lee even held a match point before injury stopped him\, ending the contest at 21-17\, 20-22\, 6-14. The opening game had been tightly fought. Lee strung together a late burst to edge ahead 19-17 and converted his first game point after just 18 minutes. Buoyed by that start\, he seized control early in the second game\, building a 9-4 lead. Lin responded by clawing back to 17-15 before the score swung back and forth. Lee reached 20-19 for a match point but could not finish it off\, and the match moved to a deciding game. In the third\, Lee’s lack of match fitness became apparent. Down 6-14\, he signalled to the umpire that he could not continue\, bringing an abrupt end to his campaign. \nSecond WT QF for Sindhu\nPV Sindhu extended her impressive run at the China Masters\, advancing to the quarterfinals with a commanding straight-games victory (21-15\, 21-15) over Thailand’s World No. 6\, Pornpawee Chochuwong. The two-time Olympic medalist\, who was seeking to reverse a season plagued by six first-round exits\, demonstrated strong form in Shenzhen. She built her quarterfinal berth on a foundation of decisive victories\, having first dispatched Denmark’s Line Christophersen with a dominant 21-5\, 21-10 win in the opening round. \nHowever\, Sindhu’s campaign concluded in the next round\, where she was defeated by the 2024 Paris Olympic champion\, South Korea’s An Se-young. \nFajar and Fikri Made It Again\nIndonesia’s new men’s doubles pairing of Fajar Alfian and Muhammad Shohibul Fikri pulled off an impressive upset against China’s Liang Weikeng and Wang Chang\, who were riding high from a recent title at the Hong Kong Open. \nThe Indonesian duo controlled the match with sharp net interceptions and powerful smashes from the back. Though they lost the first game\, their relentless strategy eventually overwhelmed the Chinese pair. Fajar and Fikri rallied to a hard-fought 16–21\, 21–15\, 21–18 victory\, advancing to the quarter-finals of the China Masters. \nLanier Ended Axelsen’s Campaign\nTwo-time Olympic champion Viktor Axelsen suffered a surprise defeat to France’s Alex Lanier in the round of 16 of the 2025 China Masters. The Danish former world No.1 opened strongly at the Shenzhen Arena\, edging the first game 22–20\, but Lanier — ranked seventh in the world — hit back to claim the next two games 21–15\, 21–13. Earlier in the tournament\, Axelsen had bounced back from a first-round exit at the Hong Kong Open by defeating China’s Wang Zhengxing 16–21\, 21–17\, 21–11 in his opening match in Shenzhen. However\, the Paris 2024 Olympic gold medallist was still regaining full match fitness after a six-month absence from competition and found it hard to cope with the pace of a 67-minute encounter. Alex Lanier’s victory over Viktor Axelsen at the 2025 China Masters made their H2H record 2-1 in favor of Lanier. \n\nChina’s Mixed Doubles Streak Ends\nFor the first time in the 18-year history of the China Masters\, the mixed doubles final did not feature a Chinese pair\, ending the country’s extraordinary streak of domestic dominance since the tournament’s inception in 2005. This historic moment was secured at the Shenzhen Arena after two thrilling semifinal victories by non-Chinese pairs. \nIn a remarkable upset\, Thailand’s Dechapol Puavaranukroh and Supissara Paewsampran defeated the top-seeded Chinese duo\, Jiang Zhen Bang and Wei Ya Xin\, in a swift 43-minute match with a score of 21-17\, 22-20. \nThe second semifinal was an epic battle that saw Malaysia’s newly crowned world champions\, Chen Tang Jie and Toh Ee Wei\, triumph over the defending champions\, Feng Yan Zhe and Huang Dong Ping. The grueling match lasted 80 minutes\, with the Malaysian pair prevailing in a three-game thriller\, 22-24\, 21-19\, 21-17. Their victory solidified the historic outcome and guaranteed that new\, non-local champions would be crowned. \n\n2024 Champions\nOf the previous year’s China Masters champions\, only An Se-young and Seo Seung-jae managed to successfully defend their titles. The 2024 winning men’s doubles pair of Jin Yong and Seo Seung-jae had not reunited for the tournament. Instead\, Seo Seung-jae had formed a new partnership with Kim Won-ho\, and the duo entered the tournament as the top seeds. Jin Yong\, meanwhile\, was absent from the player list altogether and did not compete. \n\n\n\nMen’s Singles\nAnders Antonsen (DEN)\n\n\nWomen’s Singles\nAn Se-young (KOR)\n\n\nMen’s Doubles\nJin Yong / Seo Seung-jae (KOR)\n\n\nWomen’s Doubles\nLiu Shengshu / Tan Ning (CHN)\n\n\nMixed Doubles\nFeng Yanzhe / Huang Dongping (CHN)\n\n\n\nTournament Links\n\n\n\nBWF Tournament Profile\n\n\nDraws\nLive Score\nWikipedia Article\n\n\n\nSchedule\nAll times are local\, China Standard Time (UTC+8). \n\n\n\nDates\nRound\nStart Time\n\n\nTuesday\, Sept 16 Match Schedule\nRound of 32 (Top Half)\n9:00 AM\n\n\nWednesday\, Sept 17 Match Schedule\nRound of 32 (Bottom Half)\n9:00 AM\n\n\nThursday\, Sept 18 Match Schedule\nRound of 16\n9:00 AM\n\n\nFriday\, Sept 19 Match Schedule\nQuarter-Finals\n10:00 AM\n\n\n5.00 PM\n\n\nSaturday\, Sept 20 Match Schedule\nSemi-Finals\n10:00 AM\n\n\n5.00 PM\n\n\nSunday\, Sept 21 Match Schedule\nFinals\n1:00 PM\n\n\n\nTV Broadcast Schedule\nFor the event\, Courts 1 and 2 were featured in the television broadcast.

It was the 35th edition of the Hong Kong Open championships\, and part of the BWF World Tour Super 500 tournaments on the 2025 BWF World Tour. This event featured a total prize fund of US$500\,000.[mfn]“2025 Hong Kong Open Prospectus”. BWF Corporate. Retrieved 30 August 2025.[/mfn] \nThe 2025 Hong Kong Open was awarded the prestigious “M” Mark by Hong Kong’s Major Sports Events Committee. This designation recognized the tournament’s potential to deliver top-tier sports and economic benefits to the city. The tournament received enhanced government support. The “M” Mark aimed to develop world-class events that would boost tourism\, stimulate local business\, and solidify Hong Kong’s reputation as a hub for major international sports. The committee stated the championships would feature Olympic medalists and world-ranked players\, attracting overseas fans and providing a significant boost to local hospitality and retail sectors.[mfn]“Hong Kong Badminton Open 2025 awarded prestigious “M” Mark status”. The Standard. Retrieved 4 September 2025.[/mfn] \nA Tale of Two Comebacks\nThe opening rounds of the 2025 Hong Kong Open were defined by stunning upsets and the continued struggles of returning champions\, as both Malaysia’s Lee Zii Jia and Denmark’s Viktor Axelsen saw their comeback bids end prematurely. \nIn an all-Malaysian clash that signaled a potential changing of the guard\, world No. 23 Leong Jun Hao delivered a commanding performance to defeat his more illustrious compatriot\, Lee Zii Jia\, 21-16\, 21-16. The 40-minute victory was a landmark achievement for Leong\, marking his first win over the former world No. 2 in four attempts. For Zii Jia\, the loss extends a deeply frustrating run as he continues to search for form and confidence following a lengthy injury layoff that has seen his real-time ranking plummet to No. 47. \nThe shockwaves continued moments later as Japan’s Kodai Naraoka emphatically showed defending champion Viktor Axelsen the door. Playing his first competitive match in six months following back surgery\, and further hampered by a fever the previous week\, Axelsen was uncharacteristically off-pace. Naraoka capitalized ruthlessly\, securing a decisive 21-15\, 21-7 victory in just 37 minutes. Despite the disappointing end to his long-awaited return\, the Olympic bronze medalist exemplified true sportsmanship\, generously praising his opponent’s performance in defeat. \nHowever\, in a stunning twist of fate\, Naraoka’s triumph was short-lived. The very next day\, the young Japanese star was himself on the receiving end of a major upset. India’s emerging talent\, Ayush Shetty\, mounted a brilliant comeback after dropping the first game to overwhelm the fifth seed 19-21\, 21-12\, 21-14 in 72 minutes. This result served as a powerful reminder of the relentless and unpredictable nature of modern badminton\, where no star\, regardless of their previous day’s glory\, is safe from an early exit. \nThe Five-Title Triumph\n\nThe 2025 Hong Kong Open was a historic event for Chinese badminton\, as the nation’s players achieved a remarkable clean sweep of all five titles. This dominant performance saw China capture the men’s singles\, women’s singles\, men’s doubles\, women’s doubles\, and mixed doubles crowns. This achievement is particularly significant as it marks the first time a single country has won all available titles at a BWF World Tour event (Super 300 or higher) since the tour’s inception in 2018. \nWhile the 2025 Hong Kong Open sweep is a first for the BWF World Tour era\, it is not the first time China has accomplished this feat at the Hong Kong Open. The nation previously achieved a clean sweep of all titles at this very tournament in 2012. This was a pivotal year for Chinese badminton\, with the team also dominating the Olympic Games in London. \nThe 2012 victory was a testament to the golden generation of Chinese players\, including legendary figures who went on to achieve global recognition. Before that\, China also swept the Hong Kong Open titles in both 2011 and 2005. These repeated instances of total dominance at the Hong Kong Open suggest a strong historical connection and a consistent ability for China to perform at its peak in this particular tournament. \n\nTournament Details\n\n\n\nDate\n9–14 September\n\n\nEdition\n35th\n\n\nDraw\n32MS / 32WS / 32MD / 32WD / 32XD\n\n\nCategory\nSuper 500\n\n\nPrize Money\nUS$500\,000\n\n\nLocation\nKowloon\, Hong Kong\n\n\nVenue\nHong Kong Coliseum\n\n\n\nTournament Links\n\n\n\nResults and Tournament Draw\n\n\nLive Score\nOfficial Website\n\n\nWikipedia Article\nBuy Tickets \n\n\n\nChampions\n\n\n\nMen’s Singles\n🇨🇳 Li Shifeng\n\n\nWomen’s Singles\n🇨🇳 Wang Zhiyi\n\n\nMen’s Doubles\n🇨🇳 Liang Weikeng\n🇨🇳 Wang Chang\n\n\nWomen’s Doubles\n🇨🇳 Jia Yifan\n🇨🇳 Zhang Shuxian\n\n\nMixed Doubles\n🇨🇳 Feng Yanzhe\n🇨🇳 Huang Dongping\n\n\n\nSchedule\nAll times are local\, Hong Kong Time (UTC+8). \n\n\n\nDates\nRound\nStart Time\n\n\nTuesday\, Sept 9 Match Schedule\nAll Qualifying Rounds\n9:00 AM\n\n\nRound of 32 (MD and WD except qualifiers)\n4:00 PM\n\n\nWednesday\, Sept 10 Match Schedule\nRound of 32 & MD/WD Qualifiers\n9:00 AM\n\n\n6:30 PM\n\n\nThursday\, Sept 11 Match Schedule\nRound of 16\n9:00 AM\n\n\n6:30 PM\n\n\nFriday\, Sept 12 Match Schedule\nQuarter-Finals\n11:00 AM\n\n\n6:30 PM\n\n\nSaturday\, Sept 13 Match Schedule\nSemi-Finals\n10:00 AM\n\n\n5:00 PM\n\n\nSunday\, Sept 14 Match Schedule\nFinals\n2:00 PM\n\n\n\nVenue\nThe Hong Kong Coliseum stands as the iconic and premier indoor arena in Hong Kong\, a majestic fixture on the Hung Hom waterfront renowned for its distinctive inverted pyramid design.

It was the 34th edition of the China Open championships\, and part of the BWF World Tour Super 1000 tournaments on the 2025 BWF World Tour. This event featured a total prize fund of US$2\,000\,000. \n\n\nThe tournament saw all defending champions return\, setting the stage for exciting early matchups. In the Men’s Singles\, unseeded defending champion Weng Hongyang faced a challenging first-round draw against compatriot Shi Yuqi\, a repeat of his unseeded status from the previous year. Shi Yuqi ultimately won that opening encounter. Women’s Singles defending champion Wang Zhiyi\, seeded second\, also successfully began her campaign against Taiwan’s Hsu Wen-chi\, securing a first-round victory. \nLast year’s sole non-Chinese champions in Men’s Doubles\, Goh Sze Fei and Nur Izzuddin\, entered this year’s edition as the top seeds. However\, their title defense was unexpectedly cut short in the first round by Korea’s Kang Min-hyuk and Ki Dong-ju. The defending Women’s Doubles champions\, Li Yijing and Luo Xumin\, began their quest for a repeat title against USA’s Francesca Corbett and Jennie Gai\, winning their opening match. Similarly\, top seeds and defending Mixed Doubles champions Feng Yanzhe and Huang Dongping secured a victory in their opening match against Japan’s Yuichi Shimogami and Sayaka Hobara. \nKorean stars An Se-young and the Men’s Doubles pair of Kim Won-ho and Seo Seung-jae arrived in Changzhou fresh off their victories at the Japan Open 2025\, with their sights set on a historic achievement. A win at the China Open would have made them the first players ever to sweep all four BWF World Tour Super 1000 tournaments in a single season. \nHowever\, the “Super Slam” aspirations for Kim Won-ho and Seo Seung-jae were ultimately dashed in the semifinals. The newly paired Indonesian duo of Fajar Alfian and Muhammad Shohibul Fikri delivered a stunning upset\, halting the Koreans’ impressive run. An Se-young’s pursuit of history also came to an unfortunate end when she retired during the second game of her semifinal match against China’s Han Yue. \nDespite these setbacks for the Koreans\, the host nation\, China\, enjoyed a highly successful tournament\, securing four titles across various categories. The only exception was the Men’s Doubles\, where China’s sole semifinal representative was defeated by the eventual champions\, Indonesia’s Fajar Alfian and Muhammad Shohibul Fikri. This strong performance by China mirrored their achievement at last year’s event\, where they also clinched four titles\, with Men’s Doubles being the sole category they did not win. The Men’s Doubles championship marked a significant milestone for Indonesia\, as it was the first Super 1000 title for the nation in 2025. \n\n\nChampions\n\n\n\nMen’s Singles\nShi Yuqi (CHN)\n\n\nWomen’s Singles\nWang Zhiyi (CHN)\n\n\nMen’s Doubles\nFajar Alfian / Muhammad Shohibul Fikri (INA)\n\n\nWomen’s Doubles\nLiu Shengshu / Tan Ning (CHN)\n\n\nMixed Doubles\nFeng Yanzhe / Huang Dongping (CHN)\n\n\n\nResults and Tournament Draw Live Score \nSchedule\nAll times are local\, China Standard Time (UTC+8). \n\n\n\nDates\nRound\nStart Time\n\n\nTuesday\, July 22 Match Schedule\nRound of 32 (Top Half)\n9:00 AM\n\n\nWednesday\, July 23 Match Schedule\nRound of 32 (Bottom Half)\n9:00 AM\n\n\nThursday\, July 24 Match Schedule\nRound of 16\n9:00 AM\n\n\nFriday\, July 25 Match Schedule\nQuarter-Finals\n10:00 AM\n\n\n5:00 PM\n\n\nSaturday\, July 26 Match Schedule\nSemi-Finals\n10:00 AM\n\n\n5:00 PM\n\n\nSunday\, July 27 Match Schedule\nFinals\n1:00 PM\n\n\n\n\n\nWant to catch every smash and rally at the China Open 2025?
