Notional Rankings = Present Rankings taking into account the last 52 weeks performance. 

Race to Tokyo Rankings = Rankings taking into account only the tournaments which will be part of Rankings at end of qualification procedure. 

 

On April 30 2020, both rankings will be same.

I have seen many players complain about the compulsory participation rule in couple of years.

I think after the World Tour came out, players began to appreciate the Superseries era.

 

The World Tour is a mess because BWF is neglecting players more in order to please the sponsors

Yeah they just want to maximize their income through sponsorship. They are not worried about players.

The Badminton World Federation (BWF) can confirm men’s singles world No.1 Kento Momota was involved in a motor vehicle accident in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, on Monday morning. 

Momota sustained multiple laceration wounds to the face plus right maxillary sinus and nasal bone fracture and was taken to Putrajaya Hospital for treatment. He is in a stable condition.

The driver of the vehicle was killed. 

Three others were involved – Japan team assistant coach, Hirayama Yu; team physiotherapist Morimoto Akifumi; and Hawkeye system operator, William Thomas.

All three are in a stable condition. A BWF manager has been at the hospital throughout the morning to provide assistance to all parties involved.

    • At now only 3 times in a row we fail to qualify for the World Cup and calcio will be should down. It is just sad that this sport is given so much attention and money that it doesn`t deserve at all. There are 100 other sports that deserve it more and if more money were allocated to them, it would bring concrete results. 
    • That is what UEFA published after the draw. 
    • after a relatively slow start,  start hitting boundaries left and right and  just couldn't chase their score of 320/5 (50 overs), leaving the home fans highly disappointed    Will Young (107) and  Tom Latham (118, not out) were the key batsmen for the eventual winners   Tomorrow, it's time for  vs  (in Dubai @ 10 a.m. CET)

    • Zürich's Sven Andrighetto won both the Top Scorer and MVP awards of the 2024/2025 CHL    
    • Zurich fend off Färjestad to claim European Club Champions title     Zurich defeat Färjestad to become CHL Champions Färjestad's inability to convert on special teams was costly Sven Andrighetto scored both goals for the Swiss     Sven Andrighetto scored twice, including the game-winner at 32:33, and Šimon Hrubec made 31 of 32 saves as ZSC Lions Zurich kept the European Trophy in Switzerland with a nail-biting 2-1 victory over Färjestad Karlstad.   The Swedes scored late to bring the game to within one, but a dominant defensive effort from the Swiss side helped secure their well-deserved win in the 2024/25 Champions Hockey League Final.   Both netminders were excellent through the first 20 minutes, but an opportune moment near the end of the frame enabled the Swiss to break the deadlock when Andrighetto slid a loose puck between the pads of Maxime Lagacé to open the scoring at 17:48.    Dario Trutmann threw the initial shot on net as the puck ricocheted off several players before finding its way to the top of the blue paint where Andrighetto deposited the loose change to secure his ninth of the year.   Then in the second, it was Andrighetto again as the 31-year-old extended his club's lead with seven and a half to go in the middle frame.   Play developed as Denis Malgin skated the puck through neutral ice before dropping it off for Rudolfs Balcers who quickly dished it to Andrighetto in the near circle where he one-timed it past the Färjestad netminder to make it 2-0 in favour of the hosts.   The Swiss continued to put on a defensive clinic in the second, mitigating the Swedes' offensive pressure and minimising their high-danger chances.   Hrubec managed to turn aside all 20 Färjestad shots through the first two periods to keep his club's advantage heading into the third.   Still trailing by two, the Swedes were awarded their fourth powerplay of the night when Zurich's Malgin was called for Boarding at 50:59 and would make good on the ensuing man-advantage thanks to Per Åslund's second of the season and first since his goal on Game Day 1.   Off the face-off win, the puck found its way to David Tomášek who slid it towards the stick of Åslund who was parked at the top of the crease where he redirected it past Hrubec with less than ten minutes to play in regulation.   Desperate to find the equaliser, Färjestad pulled their netminder in the closing moments but Zurich's defence, spearheaded by Hrubec, pulled through as the Swiss fought off the Swedes' last-ditch effort to claim victory and be crowned European Club Champions.
