The All England Open will see top badminton players from around the world gather at Arena Birmingham in Birmingham, England, where it’s been held since 1994, from 16-20 March to compete in one of the most prestigious trophies on offer.
Last year saw Malaysia’s Lee Zii Jia clinch the men’s singles title for the first time in his career. Tokyo 2020 gold medall Viktor Axelsen, the player Lee beat in the 2021 All England final, is the top seed for this tournament and will kick off his efforts to reclaim the title against India’s 2019 World Championship bronze medall Sai Praneeth. Two-time world champion Momota Kento of Japan will be one to watch as he mounts a challenge to return to the top after winning the All England in 2019.
Okuhara Nozomi claimed her second women’s singles. Chinese Taipei’s Tai Tzu Ying is world number one and won the silver medal at Tokyo 2020. She’s also had a lot of happy memories at the All England Open having won it on three occasions in 2017, 2018 and 2020. Okuhara’s compatriot Yamaguchi Akane is another favourite for the women’s singles title. Not to be forgotten is 2019 world champion and two-time Olympic medall PV Sindhu. It’s been over a year since the Indian shuttler switched coaches and she has slowly been raising her game. Last year Sindhu finished runner-up in the World Tour Finals and recently picked up her first tour title since 2018 when she won the Syed Modi International in January.
