Chinese team did not manage to sweep over the golds as their two MD pairs were ousted in the Semifinals. This division will go to either Japan or Korea. 

Lin Dan failed to repeat his success in the last Championships due to his unfit condition, giving a free ticket for the final match to Chen Jin. 

Of the incumbent champions, only ZhangNan/Zhao Yunlei and Wang Yihan who are going to defend their titles tomorrow. The 'ZZ-top' is taking on Xu Chen/Ma Jin, while Wang is replaying the 2012 All England clash with Li Xuerui.
