The 2024 All England Open Badminton Championships marks the 125th anniversary of badminton's oldest tournament, and it's set to serve as a key stop on the road to this summer's Olympics as it is the final Super 1000 event before next month's cut-off. Here's where to watch All England Open Badminton Championships live streams online for free – from anywhere.
Top seed Viktor Axelsen, a two-time winner of the championships, is back in action, having competed at only one previous BWF World Tour event this year. The Dane was a shock second-round casualty at Utilita Arena Birmingham a year ago, and will be doubly determined to showcase his best form and wrestle the title from Li Shifeng's grasp.
The All England Open Badminton Championships also marks something of a comeback for two-time world champ Akane Yamaguchi, who's been working her way back to full fitness after pulling up at last year's Asian Games. She's the No.4 seed, with top billing going to the South Korean reigning champion An Se-young.
