BWF Japan Masters 2025: Live streaming, TV channel, where & how to watch?

Kunlavut Vitidsarn will spearhead the men’s singles field.

A reshaped field sets the stage for the BWF Japan Masters 2025, as multiple top names, including Anders Antonsen and Viktor Axelsen, have withdrawn ahead of the Super 500 event starting on November 11.

Despite the high-profile absences, the tournament remains a crucial battleground in the final stretch before the World Tour Finals, with every match carrying heavy ranking implications.

Thailand’s Kunlavut Vitidsarn leads the men’s singles draw as the top seed, while Japan’s Akane Yamaguchi spearheads the women’s singles lineup on home soil.

Indian participation at the BWF Japan Masters 2025 is deep but disrupted, with several notable withdrawals, including PV Sindhu’s, altering the country’s overall presence.
