In the dynamic world of badminton, the BWF Korea Masters has consistently stood as a prominent stage where the world’s top shuttlers showcase their prowess on the circuit. Over the years, the tournament has witnessed remarkable performances, unforgettable matches, and the crowning of champions who have left their indelible mark on the sport. The tournament has drawn the attention of many top-class players from all over the world, who will be competing for a total prize pool of $210,000.

The Korea Masters is an international badminton tournament that is usually held in November or December every year as part of the Badminton World Federation (BWF) calendar. It is one of the most prestigious badminton tournaments in Asia, providing a platform to not only compete for the title but also earn crucial ranking points that shape their careers and Olympic qualifiers.

Previously, the event was called the Grand Prix Gold as it was recognized as the BWF Grand Prix Series. In 2018, this tournament became part of the BWF World Tour Super 300, after the Grand Prix Gold event ceased.

From 2018 onwards, the BWF Korea Masters has been classified as one of the BWF World Tour Super 300 competitions under the BWF event framework. The tournament has been held since 2007 except for 2014 owing to poor economic conditions in the country and 2020 and 2021 due to the global Covid-19 pandemic.

Host nation South Korea is the most dominant nation in the history of the competition having claimed 62 titles in total. This includes 12 in men’s singles, 9 in women’s singles, 13 in men’s doubles, 15 in women’s doubles, and 13 in mixed doubles. China and Japan are the second and third most successful nations, with seven and five titles respectively. We will now take a look at the list of past winners of the BWF Korea Masters.
