The thing is BWF wants to have a group stage (unlike other racket sports) and they can't fix the number of groups in because of the variable number of players in singles.

 

What they can fix is the grouping conditions such as giving group of fours to lowest seeded players or making the bye positions flexible.

the answer to that is a limited number of runners-up qualifying for a last 16. if you have a weird number of players, even better. start on the basis of 12 groups of 4, with groups adjusted to 3 for having less than 48 players. 12 group winners, 12 seeds. from there there are any number of ways to get to 16.

 

in this case : 41 = 5 groups of 4, 7 groups of three. Put top 5 seeds in groups of 4. GRoups of three, winners progress. Groups of 4 winners progress and runners up progress- the two lowesr ranked runners up play for the last, last 16 place (which mathematically can never be 1 and 2 seed)

Second Frnech pair has been included and the men's doubles draw will be tomorrow.

And not a single regulation is updated except making one group to have 5 pairs instead of 4. Bravo

Group D is an absolute minefield in Men's Doubles. Just shows what one extra space does to the probability while drawing.

And no French men's double in group D:hyper:
