The first phase began with the founding of the International Badminton Federation in 1934 and 17 badminton associations before the Second World War. The second phase began after the War with the first Thomas Cup contest won by Malaya in 1949. From 1946 to 1979, Malaysia won the Cup 4 times and Indonesia, 7 times. In 1979 twenty-six countries competed for the Cup. The third phase began with China's membership into the IBF in 1981.

  • MAHATHIR WINS VIET OPEN PRELIMINARY ROUND (Bernama
    19 NOV 1997 VN-Badminton MAHATHIR WINS VIET OPEN PRELIMINARY ROUND HANOI, Nov 18 (Bernama) -- The Vietnam Open 97 badminton tournament began today with trepidation among members of the comparatively small Malaysian team but with Mahathir Mustaffa easily winning his preliminary round. Mahathir, the sole men's singles player in the team, began ticking after a lethargic start to beat unknown Thai Sirachai Panpatchara 15-10, 5-4 at the Hanoi Indoor Stadium here. The other singles player registered for the Vietnam Open 97 -- the last leg of the badminton circuit before the World Grand Prix championships in Jakarta next month -- was Jason Wong but he had opted out because of injury. Mahathir faces a relatively experienced British player Mark Constable later in the evening which would also see the mixed doubles encounter between Tan Kim Her-Norashikin Amin and Denmark's Larsen Jesper-Ann Jorgensen. Recuperating from injury would also be in the minds of national pair Cheah Soon Kit and Yap Kim Hock as this will only be the second international outing by the two together since the Thai Open. Before last week's Thai Open Kim Hock was absent from the badminton scene since May due to injuries. Kim Hock had stated that he would try his best but could not be playing 100 per cent due to the long absence. The seeded pair, now slated as world no 13, will only get to play tomorrow meeting the winners of the match between Vietnam's Le Dai Thang-Tran Duc Sang and Singapore's Patrick Lau-Zhao Jianhua.

  • DONG JIONG WITHDRAWS from MALAYSIAN OPEN (Bernama 04
    04 JUL 1997 Badminton-Open DONG JIONG WITHDRAWS FROM MALAYSIAN OPEN By: Hamdan Saaid KUALA LUMPUR, July 4 (Bernama) -- Olympic silver medalist and world number one Dong Jiong of China has withdrawn from the US$180,000 (RM450,000) Malaysian Open badminton championships in Kota Kinabalu from July 9 to 13. The Chinese Badminton Association has informed the organisers that Dong, who had also pulled out from the World Championships in Glasgow due to high fever, was unable to compete due to injury. It was another set back for the championships which had earlier seen the withdrawal of reigning world champion Peter Rasmussen of Denmark while Malaysia's top doubles champ Yap Kim Hock pulled out due to shoulder injury, forcing his partner Cheah Soon Kit to find a new partner. In Dong's absence, former world champion Joko Suprianto of Indonesia has been seeded first in the six-star tournament while defending champion Ong Ewe Hock has been drawn to meet Joko in the final. According to the seedings released by the International Badminton Federation (IBF), Ewe Hock is in the same half with third seed Peter-Gade Christensen of Denmark. Christensen, who became the first European since Morten Frost Hansen to win a title in Asia when he won the Taiwan Open this year, is expected to clash with the Malaysian in the semifinal. Three-time champion Rashid Sidek has been seeded fourth and is likely to come up with Joko in the last four. Rashid beat him in the quarterfinals in the Olympi c Games in Atlanta.
