The home tournament, which is now the World Tour’s top tier tournament, will be held from Jan 10-15 in 2023 and Jan 9-14 in 2024.

It has been held June for the last couple of years but next edition will offer bigger prize money and world ranking points. The 31-event World Tour will then continue with the India Open, Indonesia Masters and Thailand Masters, followed by continental championships in February for both years, before moving to Europe with German Open.BWF also confirmed China as the 2023 Sudirman Cup hosts from May 14-21 in Suzhou, which is set to be the first tournament eligible for Race to Paris Olympic Games qualification to run from May 1, next year until April 28, 2024.

Denmark’s capital Copenhagen will host the World Championships from Aug 20-27, while China will also host the 2024 Thomas and Uber Cups from April 28 to May 5 with the host city to be announced later. BWF secretary general Thomas Lund said the badminton community could look forward to a return to normalcy over the next few years after the global sports scene was largely impacted by the Covid-19 pandemic since early 2020.
