    Former World Champion PV Sindhu: World junior championships silver medallist Tanvi Sharma, women’s doubles national champions Ashwini Bhat K., Shikha Gautam, and Tharun Mannepalli were promoted to the main draw of the BWF India Open 2026 after the withdrawal of some of the top players on the eve of the tournament.

    World champion and men’s singles world No. 1 Shi Yuqi of China has pulled out of the tournament after he had to retire in Sunday’s Malaysia Open 2026 final against Kunlavut Vitidsarn. His compatriot, Weng Hong Yang, too, has withdrawn.

    In women’s singles, women’s third seed and reigning world champion Akane Yamaguchi, who had retired against PV Sindhu in the quarterfinals of the Malaysia Open, also pulled out, paving the way for Tanvi to make her India Open debut.
