If you think the title is the only thing these shuttlers are fighting for, you’re wrong. As it happens, the competition comes with monetary prizes (more on that later) and BWF points that help determine year-end BWF rankings.
The Singapore Badminton Open is a BWF Super 750 tournament, meaning it ranks just below Super 1000 events such as the All England Open in terms of size. Here’s a fun fact: There are only six Super 750 tournaments on the overall BWF World Tour in 2024.
