Welcome to DENMARK OPEN 2022 presented by VICTOR

It is with great pleasure, pride, and excitement that I, on behalf of Badminton Danmark, hereby welcome you all to this year’s DENMARK OPEN 2022 presented by VICTOR.

For the past 13 years, the tournament has been held in Odense Sports Park with great success. But the time has come for us to develop the event. And we believe that we can do this by hosting the tournament in Jyske Bank Arena, where the tournament will be held for the next five years.

By moving the entire event to Jyske Bank Arena, we get an even better opportunity to create a world-class event for everyone involved. This applies to players, coaches, referees, volunteers, spectators, sponsors, partners, etc. All in all, we believe that the overall experience will be even more special and unique.

As an organizer, we can control how we would like the framework for running such an event to be. What we can’t control is how the game on the field turns out. But the last several years have shown that every year enchanting and fantastic badminton is played, and that every year a fantastic badminton story is written on. And I wonder if new memorable chapters will be written again this year in this amazing sport. I think so.

Now we are ready once again for the world’s second-oldest international badminton tournament, DENMARK OPEN 2022 presented by VICTOR. A big thanks for the fantastic support from and co-operation with Odense Municipality, Destination Fyn, Visit Odense, and of our main sponsor VICTOR.

A warm and heartfelt thanks to all and a great welcome to all players, coaches, managers, and officials.

Welcome to our enthusiastic audience and not least welcome to all our vital volunteers.

Tore Vilhelmsen President, Badminton Danmark
