The 2023 BWF World Tour (officially known as 2023 HSBC BWF World Tour for sponsorship reasons), was the sixth season of the BWF World Tour of badminton, a circuit of 30 tournaments that lead up to the World Tour Finals tournament.[1] The 31 tournaments are divided into five levels: Level 1 is the said World Tour Finals, Level 2 called Super 1000 (4 tournaments), Level 3 called Super 750 (6 tournaments), Level 4 called Super 500 (9 tournaments) and Level 5 called Super 300 (11 tournaments). Each of these tournaments offers different ranking points and prize money. The highest points and prize pool are offered at the Super 1000 level (including the World Tour Finals).
One other category of the tournament, the BWF Tour Super 100 (level 6), also offers BWF World Tour ranking points. It still acts as an important part of the pathway and entry point for players into the BWF World Tour tournaments. BWF announced that there will be nine tournaments for the BWF Tour Super 100 in 2023.[2] When the nine Level 6 grade tournaments of the BWF Tour Super 100 were included, the complete tour consisted of 40 tournaments.
