    Any idea who are currently commentating at the World championships at Copenhagen? Recently Gronya Somerville was a guest speaker. She introduced a lady called 'MOSH' as her fellow commentator. Any more info on them?

    Can you link the match?

    Could it be Mousumi DUTT.

    The english commentaters for the Finals are Gill Clark (a former professional badminton player) and Steen Pedersen (former head coach of denmark national team).

    Have always enjoyed their commentary combo, which gives a good blend of layman and technical commentary

    I am curious to know who are the commentators for other languages. I heard that many retired professional players actually commentates, like Ayaka Takahashi during Tokyo olympics. At the World Championships, it seems Vittinghus commentated for the Danish language? I'm not sure, might have heard him mention that in Badminton Experience podcast.

    Who are commenting currently? Yesterday during some match i could hear Scottish accent so my assumption was Kirsty Gilmour. There are some different voices today.
