About the tournament:
Momota Kento, the previous men's world champion, will not be competing internationally after this competition. With effect from the end of the Thomas Cup, the Japanese shuttler has declared his retirement from competitive badminton.
As the four teams with the highest seeds in the competition, China, the Republic of Korea, Japan, and Thailand appear to have the strongest prospects.
