So after 74 days, let's have a bit of update on BWF event bidding candidates:

 

Thomas/Uber Cup (Men's and women's team WC) 2018:   Bangkok and New Delhi

 

World championships 2018: Nanjing (sole bidder)

 

Sudirman Cup (Mixed team WC) 2019: Nanning, yes Nanning not Nanjing (sole bidder )

 

World championships 2019: Tokyo and Basel

 

Basically everyone is so afraid of Chinese venue collections and stayed off from bidding in that events And it looks like all those events will be in Asia, since it is very likely for BWF to award WBC 2019 to Tokyo for Olympic test event. Unless an European (or other continent) country bids for the World Junior Championships (TBD later this year), we won't see any badminton major events outside Asia until 2020. A reverse condition from 2015-2017 bidding where it managed to spread to Pan Am and Oceania

Sadly it's a terrible week for me.

Kolding is pretty close and I would love to go see a bit of badminton, but I don't have any time this week.

I find it only on the official app for mobile phone. Try to write "Badminton EC2017", you'll find it

My prediction: Denmark will win 4 golds and Marin will win the 5th.
