Following a recent BWF World Tour revamp\, the Singapore Open will revert to Super 500 status from 2027 through 2030. \n\n\n\nWhile this shift may result in a different ranking point structure\, tournament organizers and local stars like Loh Kean Yew have emphasized that the spirit of the event remains unchanged. The move to Super 500 in 2027 is expected to open more doors for rising local talents (ranked between 50 and 80) to compete on home soil\, while still attracting the world’s best.
