Despite the absence of its defending Women’s Singles champion, Wang Yihan, the CR Land BWF World Superseries Finals will not be devoid of quality. Though injury has thwarted the world No. 1 and Chinese shuttler’s quest for a second straight year-end success, eight of the best have confirmed their participation and it is difficult to predict the winner.
Li Xuerui: The Olympic Gold Medalist Leading the Pack
The favorite for the title must be Olympic gold medalist Li Xuerui, who has had an astonishing season. Li has won an impressive seven major individual titles, boasting a remarkable win percentage of over 90%. With victories in events like the Olympics, the Asian Championships, and the All England, she now sets her sights on adding the World Superseries Finals to her list of achievements.

Among the challengers likely to deny Li the title are Germany’s Juliane Schenk and India’s Saina Nehwal. Both players have proven their ability to defeat Li earlier this year. Schenk emerged victorious at the Denmark Open, while Nehwal won the Indonesia Open final. Schenk has consistently performed well, reaching the finals or semi-finals of nine major tournaments. She has also shown her strength against top Chinese players and hopes to secure another trophy as she competes in the World Superseries Finals. Nehwal, on the other hand, had a slow start to the year but had a remarkable run in June, winning the Thailand Open and Indonesia Open Superseries.
Other Contenders to Watch
Wang Shixian, the second Chinese player in the competition, has had a challenging season. Despite a strong start, including a win at the Korea Open, she struggled against lower-ranked opponents in later tournaments. However, with her experience and past success, Wang should not be underestimated.
Tine Baun, nearing the end of her illustrious career, may not be at her peak performance level, but her experience and skill make her a potential surprise contender. Sung Ji Hyun of Korea, Eriko Hirose of Japan, and Ratchanok Intanon of Thailand are also determined to make their mark in the competition, each with their unique strengths and moments of success throughout the year.
