Unfortunately, the reality is far from expectation, plagued by the persistent COVID-19 pandemic that forcing almost all Asian top echelon shuttlers opt out from Denmark meet following the postponement of Thomas-Uber Cup Finals. Latest massive blow exacerbated by a string of Japanese elite players pulled out including defending champion Kento Momota. A blessing in disguise for low-ranked participants who able to compete in the supposed to be highly competitive Super 750 tournament. BOTTOM HALF SPOTLIGHT World number two Chou Tien Chen alongside local star the exuberant Anders Antonsen are pitted to face off in semifinal. Another names to pay attention, former champions Srikanth Kidambi who suffering lackluster performance since his 2017 sterling season. Also Jan O Jorgensen who will close his badminton career and bid farewell here, in front of his home fans. Kenta Nishimoto is expected to capitalize this rare opportunity to score inspiring result in the absence of his illustrious compatriot Momota, some names might posed obstacle to derail final mission, Rasmus Gemke, Hans Kristian Vittinghus and Brice Leverdez. First round clash will offer interesting clash between two young aspirants, 2018 YOG silver medalist Lakshya Sen and 2019 WJC silver medalist Christo Popov. WORLD CHAMPS RIVALRY Undoubtedly both Carolina Marin and Nozomi Okuhara will be the highlight in women’s singles category of this silent tournament. Marin tops Race of World Tour Finals ranking, thanks to her positive outcome in previous six tours, the Spanish sensation is slated to meet US representative Zhang Beiwen, the only player who considered to deliver trouble in last quarter. Meanwhile Okuhara stands at #11 of World Tour Finals ranking at the moment and chance open wide to sneak into top 8 this weekend. Either home protagonist Mia Blichfeldt or Canadian prospect Michelle Li would be Okuhara primary opponent in semifinal stage. LESS ATTRACTIVE DOUBLES It’s practically European Games in men’s doubles action,starring Danish number one Astrup/Rasmussen, former All England Champion Ivanov/Sozonov and Rio OG bronze medalists Ellis/Langridge. Japanese women’s doubles are overwhelming favourite here, powered by reigning All England champion Fukushima/Hirota and two-time World Champions Matsumoto/Nagahara who will take on Western challenges, the latter should be wary of well-improved Fruergaard/Thygesen and familiar Bulgarian duo Stoeva Sisters en route to their final road. Golden chance for strong contenders Ellis/Smith to clinch top flight BWF tournament title in the absence of formidable Asian leading combinations. France, German and Russian pairs alongside The Adcocks may steal the limelight in mixed doubles showcase. TODAY'S LIVE TV COVERAGE :

Would love to watch that but apparently l'équipe bought diffusion right without the intent to broadcast anything according to their program... EDIT oh it seems to be available on YouTube here anyway
O wow. Sen vs Popov. Hope I can see that on the YT channel. That's going to be hype! Really excited to see lower-ranked players in this tournament, as they don't have much recognition and don't succeed with the successful players we have seen for the past years.
Thanks Little bit rusty to write tournament preview after so looooong time didn't do it.... Indian fans should be delighted to welcome the new bright talent, Lakshya Sen
