In men’s singles, everyone dreams of a final between the two best players in the world at the moment, Axelsen and the Indonesian Anthony Sinisuka Ginting.

2023 Badminton World Championships: the French program
In a sport clearly dominated by Asian countries, several European representatives are trying to get out of the game. quite possible. This is what the Popov brothers are currently trying to do. The latter were also opposed in the final of the last French Championships. Toma Junior, 24th player in the world, should be entitled to a quiet first round before rushing on the Japanese Kodai Naraoka, world number 4. A sacred piece, almost from the start. Christo, he emerges at 31st planetary rank and could challenge Viktor Axelsen quite quickly. A colossal adversary that he has nevertheless made doubt on several occasions lately.

Among the women, Qi Xuefei and Léonice Huet, respectively 54th and 58th in the world, will have a lot to do, if only to pass the first round of these 2023 Badminton World Championships. Same observation in men’s doubles for the Corvée/ Labar and the Popov brothers. And in women’s doubles with the Lambert/Tran pair. On the other hand, in mixed doubles, the wildest hopes are allowed for Delphine Delrue and Thom Gicquel, world number 7, exempt from the first round, could inherit the formidable English Ellis / Smith, 32nd in the world, for their entry into the matter. Not easy, you will understand. But a big result at the Badminton World Championships 2023 is at this price.
