Thank u Fox to open this thread 2015 WINNERS => https://bwf.tournamentsoftware.com/...A76ABB-4E06-4B9A-B398-555205B7748B&d=20150301 MS - Jan O Jorgensen (DEN) WS - Sung Ji Hyun (KOR) MD - Mads Pieler Kolding/Mads Conrad Petersen (DEN) WD - Christinna Pedersen/Kamilla Rytter Juhl (DEN) XD - Mads Pieler Kolding/Kamilla Rytter Juhl (DEN) Some notable withdrawals, WS top-seed Carolina Marin, Chinese new powerful combination Tang YT/Yu Y and WD defending champion Pedersen/Juhl also we saw many MS players pulled out of this tourney like Vittinghus, Zulkiffli, Tanongsak, Husrkainen, Prannoy, Praneeth, Jayaram, Ouseph, etc. In MS department, all badminton fans will eye to Danish finest Jan O Jorgensen and Chinese mega star Lin Dan, barring any upsets these top two seeds will meet in finale. Jorgensen will face Derek Wong ZL at first round then on paper prediction most likely Vincent Wong WK before sets a quarterfinal clash with China #3 Tian HW. Former champion Lin Dan starts his campaign to meet Fladberg and the real test should begin at last eight, either Sugiarto or Sasaki. Another hotshot in this discipline, the rising star Viktor Axelsen who faces tricky test at opening round, Kenta Nishimoto. Two Chinese WS, Li XR and Wang SX will find some major hurdles that potentially willl derail their missin here, last year winner Sung Ji Hyun, recent Dubai SS Finals winner Nozomi Okuhara, Japan wonder teen Akane Yamaguchi also Indian youngster P.V. Sindhu. World number one, Lee YD/Yoo YS will be strong contender to pick their first title in 2016 season. Full squad by KOR team in this category as they also bring former world champion Ko SH/Shin BC and Kim GJ/Kim SR. Two Chinese regular participants, Chai B/Hong W and Liu XL/Qiu ZH, Japanese familiar pair Endo/Hayakawa, Russian Ivanov/Sozonov and defending champion Conrad/Kolding are remaining seeded pairs who try to find their best form to challenge the Koreans. Polii/Maheswari, Matsutomo/Takahashi and Korean leading WD, Chang YN/Lee SH also Jung KE/Shin SC as well will be pre tournament favourite to top podium on Sunday. They should be wary to the unseeded Chinese world junior champion Chen QC/Jia YF who may upset them. For mixed doubles scenario in this GP Gold, Ko SH/Kim HN and English married couple The Adcocks who occupy two highest seeding position will be the pair to beat considering their consistent and impressive at end of 2015. Ko/Kim won back to back titles in DEN Premier and FRA Superseries while Chris & Gabby Adcock awed badminton fans in Dubai Finals.

As I told you Kenya Nishimota is a huge talent and with the end of the calendar year he'll surely be JPN#2 if not ahead of KM
