Japan Open Badminton 2025 Schedule: Star Indian shuttlers PV Sindhu and Lakshya Sen along with talismanic men's doubles pair of Chirag Shetty-Satwiksairaj Rankireddy will be seen in action in the upcoming Japan Open 2025 badminton scheduled to take place from Tuesday, July 15. Notably, all these shuttlers were last seen at the Indonesia Open in early June. All three skipped the subsequent US Open and Canada Open, as per Olympics.com.
Sindhu, a two-time Olympic medallist, is undergoing a challenging 2025 BWF World Tour season.
The double Olympic medallist's best showing on the BWF World Tour this year came at the India Open in January, where she reached the quarter-finals. Since then, she endured four consecutive first-round exits before logging successive Round of 16 finishes at the Singapore and Indonesia Opens.
Lakshya, who finished fourth at the Olympics in Paris 2024, has also struggled for consistency with five first-round exits. His best finish this year is a quarter-final run at the All England Open.
Satwiksairaj and Chirag, the reigning Asian Games champions, have reached three semi-finals on the BWF Tour this year and made the quarter-finals at the Indonesia Open. However, they are still searching for their first title of the season.
