Malaysia has won just 4 titles so far at the competition

The China Open 2023 is returning after a four-year hiatus in the BWF (Badminton World Federation) circuit. It is one of the four Super 1000 tournaments in the current season's BWF world tour. The competition has been held annually since 1986 until 2019, with the current edition set to commence on September 5th at the Changzhou Olympic Sports Centre Xincheng Gymnasium in Changzhou, Jiangsu, China.

The tournament offers a total prize of $2,000,000 which is the biggest prize money offer for the season's calendar - except BWF World Tour Finals.

Malaysia last won a title eight years ago and would like to end the title drought this time. The last time the East Asian side won a title at the China Open was way back in 2015, when Lee Chong Wei clinched the men's singles title. The other three players to win the China Open titles are Wong Mew Chew (women's singles), Wong Choong Hann (men's singles) and Jalani Sidek/Razif Sidek (men's doubles).

This time all eyes will be on former world champions Aaron Chia/Soh Wooi Yik who are looking for their first World Tour title this season. In the 2019 edition, Malaysia had a sub-par outing, as only two pairs managed to reach the quarterfinals.
