Sudirman Cup: Indonesia in Challenging Group D
The group stage draw for the TotalEnergies BWF Sudirman Cup Finals 2025 was conducted in the host city Xiamen today, with groups C and D likely to witness the closest ties of the four groups.
Asian champions Indonesia, winners of the Sudirman Cup in its inaugural year of 1989, have been drawn with European champions Denmark, India and England in Group D, which might well turn out to be the group of death.
Fourth seeds Japan, who are looking for their first Sudirman Cup title, have been drawn in equally contentious Group C with Malaysia, France and Oceania champions Australia. With French players in the limelight in recent times with a string of impressive performances, traditional powers Japan and Malaysia will enter the group cautious about their prospects.
Meanwhile, hosts and defending champions China, who have a record 13 titles, have been drawn with Thailand, Hong Kong China and African champions Algeria in Group A.
Four-time winners Korea will contend with Chinese Taipei, Pan Am champions Canada and Czechia in Group B.
The 19th edition of the TotalEnergies BWF Sudirman Cup Finals for the World Mixed Team Championships will be held in Xiamen from 27 April to 4 May 2025.
Following the group stage, the top two teams of each group qualify for the knockout stage (quarterfinals). The knockout stage draw will be held on 1 May 2025.
