BWF will announce the information about the new BWF World Tour which will replace the BWF World Superseries in a few hours..

 

However the names of each level has been leaked:

 

Level 1 : BWF World Tour Finals
Level 2 : BWF World Tour Super 1000
Level 3 : BWF World Tour Super 750
Level 4 : BWF World Tour Super 500
Level 5 : BWF World Tour Super 300

 

 Also there is Level 6: BWF Tour Super 100 which won't affect ranking points for the World Tour Finals.

 

Clear copy-paste from ATP World Tour naming, duh.

It's really necessary to have 5 (!!) levels all called 'Super xxx'?  I can hardly imagine the 6th level is that super.

Don't know what is Hoyer Larsen is up to. We also might change from 3×21 to 5×1+ in May...
