2014 WC Qualifications

Hayom has withdrawn according to BWF last update (30th June) while Simon is in the reserve list (R4). So INA MS will be represented by Tommy Sugiarto and Sony DK.

Players/pairs in the reserve list (updated 30th June 2014) :

MS - http://www.bwfbadminton.org/file.aspx?id=570616&dl=1
WS - http://www.bwfbadminton.org/file.aspx?id=570618&dl=1
MD - http://www.bwfbadminton.org/file.aspx?id=570615&dl=1
WD - http://www.bwfbadminton.org/file.aspx?id=570617&dl=1
XD- http://www.bwfbadminton.org/file.aspx?id=570619&dl=1

Sony DK also withdrawed from the tournament.
 
Just wondering, are there Prize money to be won in WC?
Looking at Indonesia MS, if there is no Prize money and Sony being an independent player he has to foot his own bills to play, maybe Sony may give up slot to Simon ;)

I guess all BWF major events have no prize money.

Sony DK also withdrawed from the tournament.

So Tommy is INA sole representative for MS discipline as reported on PBSI website : http://badmintonindonesia.org/app/information/newsDetail.aspx?/3000
 
XD defending champion Ahmad/Natsir will not fly to Copenhagen due to Tontowi ankle injury, BWF last updated (30th July 2014) : http://www.bwfbadminton.org/file.aspx?id=579252&dl=1

So INA #1 XD will focus to Incheon Asian Games next September.

Compatriot, Praveen Jordan/Debby Susanto take Ahmad/Natsir place in WC. Thus, there are four pairs from INA flying to Copenhagen from Mixed Doubles:
1. Markis Kido/Pia Bernadeth
2. Riky Widianto/Puspita Richi Dili
3. Markus Fernaldi/Rizky Amelia Pradipta
4. Praveen Jordan/Debby Susanto
 
rumors updates from China news:

Du Pengyu quited from CBA and to be retired, which mean he will not be playing WC this month, and this likely Lin Dan or Tian Houwei will take his place for WC spot...

Interesting. Can someone find out from the rankings whether Tian Houwei ranks ahead of LD?
 
correction

Ah, then there's only 1 person that stands between him and another title at the WC.

Further correction :

Ah, then there's only 2 persons that stand between him and another title at the WC... Tian Houwei, and LCW.
 
As reported here http://sports.qq.com/a/20140521/039233.htm :

Due to some last-minute withdrawals from certain nations, for whatever reasons, CHN is fortunate to be offered the 4th spots in 4 out of 5 categories, namely, MS Tian Houwei (WR15), WS Han Li (WR14), WD Tian Qing/Zhao Yunlei, and XD Lu Kai/Huang Yaqiong.

According to Justin above and BWF Report, Tian Houwei is already qualified. I don't know the rules well so I'm not sure whether or not the BWF would still offer China 4 spots if the rumor about Du PY is true because as I remember, the BWF only gives extra spots when there are a certain number of players rank in a specific range. If they still offer China the 4th spot, the next Chinese MS players are all youngsters and I see no reasons why LYB wouldn't just keep declining the invitations until the BWF invite Lin Dan.

Du Pengyu retirement happened so suddenly, we don't see his action after Thomas Cup semifinal last May.
 
Ah, then there's only 1 person that stands between him and another attempt at the WC. ;)
Not at all. As you can see from visor's attachment, apart from the 4-player maximum, it's all about the reserve list. As shown on the pdf file, the first three cancellations resulted in reserve spots being awarded to Tian, Ueda, and Jayaram. The next will be to Simon Santoso. Lin Dan is not even on the reserve list, which will still have 20 names on it even if Du's spot goes to Santoso. Of the twenty, 5 Indians, 2 Malaysians, 2 Chinese, 1 Dane, and 1 Japanese would need a compatriot to cancel in order to be awarded a reserve spot.
