There are three major highlights in the 2025 Sudirman Cup, and the competition between China and South Korea is the main theme, and it is not excluded that the dark horse will be killed

The 2025 Sudirman Cup World Badminton Mixed Team Championships will start in Xiamen, China on the 27th, and the Chinese team, as the host, is aiming to win the 14th championship at home and complete the fourth consecutive victory. This year's Su Cup is the first badminton world team tournament in the 2028 Los Angeles Olympic cycle, and the main highlights are whether China can defend its title, whether South Korea, which is second only to China in overall strength, can win the championship again, and whether a team other than China, South Korea and Indonesia will win the cup for the first time.

China has hosted the Sudirman Cup six times before, and all of them have won at home, can this time continue the record?

The Chinese team is still the favorite to win the championship, this team has won the championship 13 times since the Suzhou Cup has been held for 18 years, and has either Olympic champions and former Olympic champions in five individual events, or has the world's top 3 players and combinations, and the lineup is so strong that other opponents envy it. As the champion of last year's Tongyou Cup, China has a good chance of winning the championship for the 14th time at home and achieving four consecutive victories. This is the seventh time that China has hosted the Soviet Cup, and in the first six times, China has won all of them as hosts.

South Korea has the best chance of ending China. The longest winning streak in the history of the Suzhou Cup was set by China between 2005 and 2015, but their winning streak was ended by South Korea in 2017. Not only 8 years ago, South Korea also ended China's 4 consecutive championships in 2003. Judging from the strength of each team in this tournament, South Korea is still the team with the best chance of ending China's winning streak, and whether they can finally win the cup for the fifth time will attract attention.

South Korea, which has twice ended China's consecutive championships, is still the most capable team to compete with China in this year's Sudirman Cup

Except for the men's singles, South Korea does not have too strong ability to grab points, and in the rest of the individual events, the world's top 3 players and combinations and world champions are helping, among which they have the strongest women's singles Ahn Se Ying in the current era.

Who will break through to become the fourth champion in history is also a big attraction? In addition to China and South Korea, the other team that has won the Suzhou Cup is Indonesia, who have the potential to advance to the semi-finals with Japan, Denmark and Chinese Taipei. The above 4 teams also have a chance to win the championship, but the probability is definitely below that of China and South Korea, because their lineup always has shortcomings and hidden worries.

As for India, which originally had the strength to advance to the semi-finals, it suffered a big blow after losing the main men's doubles Rankireddy and Shetty and women's doubles Theresa and Gayatri. However, it cannot be ruled out that there will be a dark horse in this tournament, and there may be a fourth team in history to become the new champion in this tournament.

Will there be a new champion for this year's 19th Sudirman Cup after China, South Korea and Indonesia?

On the first day of the tournament, there will be 6 matchups, namely Thailand vs. Hong Kong and China vs. Algeria in Group A; South Korea vs. Czech Republic, Chinese Taipei vs. Canada in Group B, and Indonesia vs. England and Denmark vs. India in Group D. China, South Korea, Chinese Taipei and Indonesia will basically win, and there is a certain amount of suspense in the other two matches.
