The qualifying draw and results
The Championships began in 1899 with Men's Doubles, Women's Doubles and Mixed Doubles, with Men's & Women's Singles being introduced in 1900. Since then, the Championships have grown and become widely known as, "...the world's oldest and most prestigious tournament, and a world symbol for Open Championship badminton".
