how they work
How the rankings are calculated
A player's ranking is the sum of points from their best 10 tournaments in the last 52 weeks. Points depend on the round reached and the level of the tournament, from the World Championships and World Tour Finals down to international series events.
Because only the best 10 results count, playing more tournaments can only help a total, never lower it.
schedule
When they're published
The BWF publishes a new ranking every week, on Tuesday.
In the app: the lists are checked on Tuesday and again on Wednesday morning, straight from the BWF. Each list shows the ranking date and the BWF's week number, for example "W41".
