India Open 2025 Prize Money: The likes of PV Sindhu, Lakshya Sen and even the double combination of Satwiksairaj Rankireddy and Chirag Shetty needed a break to recuperate from injuries and niggles and rejuvenate themselves after the arduous Paris Olympic campaign. Having taken their time by spending time away from the circuit, the top stars of Indian badminton are set to unleash their best on home turf as the Yonex-Sunrise India Open 2025 kicks off at the KD Jadhav Indoor Hall at the Indira Gandhi Arena here from Tuesday.
The prestigious event, which is part of the HSBC BWF World Tour Super 750 series, has attracted the world’s best badminton players including the likes of Olympic champions Viktor Axelsen and An Se-Young among others.
Sindhu will open her campaign against compatriot Anupama Upadhyaya with upcoming Japanese sixth seed Tomoka Miyazaki likely to be her opponent in the second round.
Badminton Association of India secretary general Sanjay Mishra pointed out that the number of Indian players participating in the tournament was a testament to the federation’s effort to spread the game across the country.
“To have 28 entries in a Super 750 event is a big achievement for Indian badminton. Getting a chance to play in a tournament of this stature and watch the world’s best in action will only help the development of our young guns and this is why hosting such events is so important for us.”
