2022 BWF World Championships Doubles Category First Round Draw, Fixtures, Players List
Fans probably won’t see any significant matchups between the top pairs competing in Tokyo until the third round because all sixteen of the top seeded duos in each of the three doubles categories received byes in the first round. The top seeds in the men’s doubles, Indonesia’s Marcus Fernaldi Gideon and Kevin Sanjaya Sukamuljo, are on opposite ends of the draw from the defending champions, Hoki Takuro and Kobayashi Yugo.
In the quarterfinals, Tokyo 2020 bronze medalists Aaron Chia and Soh Woo Yik might face against reigning Olympic champions Lee Yang and Wang Chi-Lin. Indian pair of Satwiksairaj Rankireddy and Chirag Shetty, who just won gold at the Commonwealth Games, are seeded seventh in the BWF World Championships and will likely face Malaysia’s Goh V Shem and Tan Wee Kiong in the third round.
In the women’s doubles, the defending champions Chen Qing Chen and Jia Yi Fan are the top seeds, while Japan’s hopes rest with Fukushima Yuki and Hirota Sayaka, who are seeded second. The younger Japanese duo of Matsuyama Nami and Shida Chiharu is very much in the running for the championship, and their potential third-round matchup against Malaysia’s Commonwealth Gold medalists Pearly Tan and Thinaah Muralitharan will be exciting to watch.
The top seeds in the mixed doubles competition are Chinese players Zheng Si Wei and Huang Ya Qiong, who have won two world championships. Meanwhile, reigning world champions Dechapol Puavaranukroh and Sapsiree Taerattanachai are on the other side of the draw bracket.
