Jakarta to host worlds
Print Edition
Jakarta will host the 2015 badminton world championships, the sport’s governing body said yesterday, more than two decades after the premier event was last played in Indonesia.
The Indonesian capital beat Kunshan in east China’s Jiangsu Province, which hosted this year’s edition, the Kuala Lumpur-based Badminton World Federation said in a statement.
Jakarta’s two-member delegation to Athens, Greece, where the announcement was made, promised that the city’s Istora Senayan Stadium will offer its famed charged atmosphere come 2015, when the world championships return to Asia from Denmark.
The BWF also announced that the southern Chinese city of Dongguan will host the 2015 Sudirman Cup, the mixed team world championships.
