The first World Championships was hosted in Malmo, Sweden, in 1977, and a Championship was held every 3 years until 1983, after which it became a biennial event. Since 2005 however, the BWF World Championships has become an annual tournament, being hosted every year except in the year of the Olympic Games. The BWF World Championships is an individual event, and each Member Association is invited to enter their players in the men's and women's singles, men's and women's doubles and the mixed doubles events. For each event, the 3rd place winner gets a bronze medal, the runner-up a silver, and the winner is awarded a gold medal and the title of 'World Champion'.
