Indonesia’s Jonatan Christie, Anthony Ginting and India’s PV Sindhu will be among the top badminton players competing at the Indonesia Open 2024 BWF Super 1000 tournament (4-9 June) starting in Jakarta on Tuesday.
Live streaming of the 2024 Indonesia Open badminton matches will be available in India, Malaysia, Indonesia, Singapore and Australia. More information is below. Geo-restricted streams are also available from 7-9 June on Olympic Channel via Olympics.com and the Olympics mobile app.
All England champion Christie is seeded third while Tokyo 2020 bronze medallist Ginting is the seventh seed for the men’s singles event, which will be led by second seed Shi Yuqi after Denmark’s Viktor Axelsen withdrew.
However, Ginting will have his task cut out against world No. 11 Nishimoto Kenta of Japan in the first round.
Axelsen defeated Anthony Ginting in the final last year to win the Indonesia Open. World No. 9 Lee Zii Jia of Malaysia is also listed to compete in Jakarta, but will be coming off an injury which saw him withdraw from last week's Singapore Open.
The women’s field includes Olympic champion Chen Yufei of the People’s Republic of China and Rio 2016 gold medallist Carolina Marín of Spain. Reigning world champion An Seyoung of the Republic of Korea and two-time Olympic medallist PV Sindhu are also competing.
The men's doubles field will be hotly-contested with Tokyo Olympics bronze medallists Aaron Chia and Soh Wooi Yik of Malaysia and Indonesia’s Fajar Alfian and Muhammad Rian Ardianto in the entry list.
World No. 1 Satwiksairaj Rankireddy and Chirag Shetty of India, who won the Indonesia Open title last year after beating Aaron Chia and Soh Wooi Yik in the final won't be defending their title. The top seeds withdrew at the 11th hour.
The women's doubles competition will see Indonesia’s Apriyani Rahayu, gold medallist at the Tokyo Olympics with Greysia Polii, compete with partner Siti Fadia Silva Ramadhanti. Rahayu and Ramadhanti won silver at the world championships last year.
World champions and Tokyo 2020 silver medallists Chen Qingchen and Jia Yifan of China are the top seeds.
In the mixed doubles, three-time world champions Zheng Siwei and Huang Yaqiong of China, and Thailand’s Dechapol Puavaranukroh and Sapsiree Taerattanachai, the 2021 world champions, will be among the top contenders.
