China has been dominant in the competition's history, having claimed a total of 59 titles.

In the dynamic realm of badminton, the China Masters stands out as a prominent stage where the world’s top shuttlers showcase their prowess on the BWF circuit. Over the years, the tournament has witnessed remarkable performances, unforgettable matches, and the crowning of champions who have left an indelible mark in the sport.

Drawing the attention of many top-class players worldwide, it's a competition where athletes vie for a substantial total prize pool of $1,000,000.

BWF China Masters stands as one of Asia's most prestigious badminton tournaments, offering not just the chance to compete for the title but also to earn crucial ranking points ahead of season ending BWF World Tour Finals. Previously known as the Fuzhou China Open, this annual badminton tournament in China became part of the BWF Super Series tournament in 2007.

In 2014, the tournament was downgraded to BWF Grand Prix Gold status due to China losing its bid to continue hosting two BWF Super Series tournaments. Consequently, the BWF China Masters was replaced by the Australian Open for the 2014–2017 Super Series cycle. It wasn’t until 2018, that the tournament regained prominence, becoming a part of the World Tour Grade 2 Level 3 tournament (BWF World Tour Super 750) and acquiring its current name.

Starting in 2023, the tournament will be held in Shenzhen and will revert to its former name, China Masters. The BWF China Masters has been a consistent event since 2005, barring the years 2020 to 2022 due to the global Covid-19 pandemic. Scheduled for November 21st to 26th, the 2023 edition will take place at the Shenzhen Bay Gymnasium in Shenzhen, China.

As the host nation, China boasts the most dominant record in the competition's history, having claimed a total of 59 titles. This includes 12 in men’s singles, 13 in women’s singles, seven in men’s doubles, 12 in women’s doubles, and 15 in mixed doubles. Indonesia and Japan follow as the second and third most successful nations, with five and four titles respectively.
