Tian Houwei – sixth seed

24-year-old Tian Houwei has been steadily rising up the ranks for some time now. But this year, he proved he has definitely come of age after reaching the final at the All England Championships. Even though, he did go down to his more illustrious compatriot Lin Dan, the experience will definitely stand him in good stead in the upcoming major tournaments.

He can surely rattle the draw and if things fall into place, he can even claim his maiden Superseries crown.

The sixth seed will meet Japanese Takuma Ueda in the first round and in the second round, he is likely to meet his old foe Kidambi Srikanth, a player he has defeated six times in the past one year.
