An ambition that keeps growing
Every year, the best Badminton players gather in France for a week to compete on the 5 different draws (men's single, women's single, men's double, women's double, mixed double). Yonex is our titre sponsor since 2009.
Now part of the HSBC BWF World Tour, the Yonex French Open has become one of the 10th biggest tournaments in the world. A spectacular show for a spectacular event !
At the center of the event : the stars. An there will be plenty of them as the new international rules assure the TOP 15 simple players and TOP 10 double players. The very best of the badminton world will be in France in october... so should you !
To present best their performances, a scenography will cover the venue in darkness, to show only the courts, nothing more.
During last years, an average of 19 000 visitors came in the venue to support the best players during the French Open.
