Just like the Olympics, the world’s premier players have a chance at the World Badminton Championships to be crowned “world champion”, so it is regarded with great importance by all professional players.

The Championships is held every year apart from an Olympic Games year (like 2012) when it is not held to let players focus on the Olympics. At the last Championship in 2011, all five titles were claimed by PRC players (men’s singles: Lin Dan, women’s singles Wang Yi Han, men’s doubles Cai Yun／Fu Hai Feng, women’s doubles: Yu Yang／Wang Xiao Li, mixed doubles: Zhang Nan／Zhao Yun Lei)
