32 countries have confirmed to participate Sudirman Cup 2011, read the news through this BWF link -- http://www.bwfbadminton.org/news_item.aspx?id=45854 Here's final list of countries for Sudirman Cup 2011 (updated 22nd February 2011), taken from BWF website -- http://www.bwfbadminton.org/file_download.aspx?id=30499 Top 8 final standing at 2009 Sudirman Cup : 1) China 2) South Korea 3) Malaysia 4) Indonesia 5) Denmark 6) England 7) Japan 8) Hongkong China
I don't understand why Austria doesn't participate in the Sudirman Cup. They have enough players/pairs to be better than most of the teams that take part.
There are now 12 teams in group 1, hong kong isn't one of them and Chinese Tapei are seeded 4 above Korea, according to BWF article?!
