Japan Open

In addition to the All Japan Open another tournament known as the Japan Open played in 2009 and 2010 in the New Pia Hall was held.[2][3]

Winners of this tournament were the Philippines Francisco Bustamante and Ramil Gallego in the men's event[4][5] as well as the Taiwanese women Tan Hsiang-ling and Chou Chieh-yu were winners of the women's event.[6][7] Chou Chieh-yu is the only player to have won both events.

The prize money of the Japan Open was significantly lower than that of the All Japan Open. During 2010, at the All Japan Open men's event, the prize purse was a total of $82,000 of which the winner received about $ 24,000,[8] The winner of the Japan Open 2010 received only $17,000 in prize money, at just under $42,000 in total prize money. In the women's at the Japan Open 2010 about $11,000 were distributed, with the winner receiving $4,400 dollars, at the All Japan Open the same year, however, were distributed over $21,000, of which the winner received about $7,000.[9]
