The Badminton World Federation (BWF) is pleased to announce that Chinese Taipei Badminton Association will host the BWF Super Series Finals 2010 while VICTOR will be the title sponsor of the USD500,000 total prize money event.

The Finals, to be played on 5-9 January 2011, will feature the top eight ranked players in the Super Series standings in all five events.

“We are also pleased to have VICTOR on board as the title sponsor and look forward to a successful VICTOR-BWF Super Series Finals in Chinese Taipei in January,” said BWF Chief Operating Officer Thomas Lund.

“We also want to thank Chinese Taipei Badminton Association for hosting the event. They have always been excellent hosts and I am confident they will do a wonderful job in hosting the tournament.”
