Bwf japan open super

BWF Japan Open Super: India's top badminton stars will be back in action at the BWF Japan Open Super 750, beginning Tuesday at the Tokyo Metropolitan Gymnasium, with the return of Satwiksairaj Rankireddy and Chirag Shetty headlining the country's campaign.

The tournament, carrying a prize purse of USD 950,000, is a key stop on the BWF World Tour as players chase crucial ranking points ahead of next month's World Championships in New Delhi and the Asian Games later this year.

The spotlight will be on Satwik and Chirag, who return for the first time since the Indonesia Open in June, where Satwik aggravated a shoulder injury. The setback forced the former Asian Games champions to miss four tournaments, halting their momentum soon after they snapped a two-year BWF World Tour title drought by winning the Singapore Open in May.
