    maybe it Hasn't happened yet, but What's the rule if a team (MD, WD, XD) which consist of players from different nationality win a tournament where the national anthem is sung?

    Should both of their national anthem be sung with 2 flags raised? and what's the order?

    Interesting question indeed. Do any tournaments where the national anthem of the winner is sung allow for players from different nationalities to pair up?

    I think the olympics or their regional counterparts (like Asian games or SEA games) wouldn't allow it, (hey, but the Nanjing youth olympic had doubles from different country, no?)

    and I saw the World Championship has that kind of ceremony, do they allow different nationality players to compete?

    BWF is a membership association, the national can apply for the Member national, or to apply two or three, but to go through the General Assembly agreed that the race of the top three national flag can be raised in flag and song,
