The total prize pool for the Swiss Open 2025 is US$250,000.

The BWF Swiss Open 2025 will run from March 18 to 23 at the St. Jakobshalle in Basel. The tournament started with two rounds of qualifiers for the Men’s Singles event and one qualifying round for the Women’s Singles, Men’s Doubles, and Mixed Doubles events. This is set to be followed by two rounds for the main draw, the quarterfinals, the semifinals, and eventually the final on Sunday.

Since the conclusion of the All England Open on March 16, several big names have withdrawn from the event. However, there is no dearth of star power in the tournament as several players ranked in the top ten in the world rankings are taking part.
