German Open

Super 300・Mülheim an der Ruhr, Germany

Seeded 4th, she reached the last four. First round on 25 February: Karupathevan LETSHANAA (MAS) 21-9, 15-21, 21-11 in 60 minutes. Second round on 26 February: Kirsty GILMOUR (SCO) 21-19, 13-9, with her opponent retiring during the second game (38 minutes). Quarter-final on 27 February: Kaloyana NALBANTOVA (BUL) 18-21, 21-18, 21-15 in 73 minutes, from a game down. 🔴The semi-final on 28 February went to top seed Wang Zhiyi (CHN), 10-21, 18-21 in 42 minutes. In the China Masters semi-final in September she beat the same player 21-19, 23-21 (see two semi-finals against Wang). 🆕The semi-final score is carried as a 2026 result on our German Open 2027 page, published on 18 September 2026; the three earlier rounds come from two agreeing sources, BWF's official day-by-day match data and the English Wikipedia draw.

Swiss Open 2026

Super 300・Basel, Switzerland

Seeded 3rd, she won two of her three matches at the Swiss Open and reached the last eight. First round on 11 March: compatriot Hina Akechi 21-8, 21-16. Second round on 12 March: NGUYEN Thuy Linh (VIE) 20-22, 21-11, 21-16, after dropping the opening game 20-22. In the quarter-final on 13 March against LIN Hsiang Ti (TPE) she retired at 6-11 in the opening game. We do not write about why. 🆕Added on 20 September 2026: these three results were already on our own Swiss Open 2027 page as the 2026 results. ⚠️The Nippon Badminton Association's day page for 12 March labels that second round "third round"; English Wikipedia and our own tournament page call it the second round. The opponent, the score and the date agree across all three.

Daihatsu Japan Open

Super 750・Tokyo Metropolitan Gymnasium

Opened the week on 14 July and lost the first round to HAN Yue (CHN) 10-21, 12-21 — one match and out. The following week she reached the semi-finals of the China Open, so her summer turned around in the space of seven days.

China Open

Super 1000・Changzhou, China

Her best result at Super 1000 level in 2026. Beat Line KJAERSFELDT (DEN) 16-21, 21-7, 21-11 in the first round, went through when Beiwen ZHANG (USA) withdrew in the second, then beat Putri Kusuma WARDANI (INA) 16-21, 21-11, 21-9 in the quarter-finals. CHEN Yufei (CHN) won the semi-final 17-21, 15-21. Both wins came after losing the opening game 16-21. Japan finished the week with one gold, one silver and one bronze — the bronze being this run.

BWF World Championships 2026

World Championships・New Delhi, India

Seeded 8. The first round was an all-Japanese match against Riko GUNJI, won 15-21, 21-14, 21-10 in 61 minutes, followed by 21-14, 21-13 over Yevheniia KANTEMYR (UKR) in 35 minutes. In the round of 16, Michelle LI (CAN, 13th seed) came back to win 21-17, 16-21, 18-21. Miyazaki took the first game and lost the next two, one round short of the quarter-finals.

China Masters

Super 750・Shenzhen, China

The first big event after the World Championships, and five matches took her to the final. She beat Hina AKECHI (JPN) 19-21, 21-17, 21-19 in an all-Japanese first round, then Tanvi SHARMA (IND) 21-17, 18-21, 21-16 in the second round — two straight three-game wins — and then Kaloyana NALBANTOVA (BUL) 21-12, 21-11 in the quarter-final, her first straight-games win of the week. Nalbantova had knocked out 6th seed Ratchanok Intanon (THA) in the previous round. In the semi-final on 5 September she beat 2nd seed WANG Zhi Yi (CHN) 21-19, 23-21 in 60 minutes to reach the final, taking the second game 23-21 from deuce. 🔴In the final on 6 September she lost to top seed An Se-young (KOR) 17-21, 6-21 in 45 minutes and finished as runner-up. The opening game was close at 17-21; the second went to six points. It is still the furthest she has gone in any event we record in 2026. ⚠️The final score comes from two agreeing sources: the BWF match data for the day and the draw on English Wikipedia.

Asian Games 2026

Asian Games・Ichinomiya, Aichi, Japan

Team silver, and out in the third round of the individual event. In the team event (Japan seeded 2nd) she won the third match of the semi-final against Korea on 23 September, beating Sim Yu-jin 21-15, 21-14 to put Japan 2-1 up, then lost the third match of the final on 24 September to Chen Yufei 10-21, 11-21 (40 minutes) as China won 3-0. In the individual event she had a first-round bye, beat a player from Mongolia 21-5, 21-5 in the second round on 26 September, and lost the third round later that day to P. V. Sindhu (IND) 9-21, 13-21. We have not recorded her match in the team quarter-final against India. ⚠️These four matches are not in the 20-match count below (scores from Miyazaki's side).

Korea Open 2026

Super 500・Yeosu, South Korea

Seeded 3rd, she won two matches and reached the quarter-finals. She beat HUANG Ching Ping (TPE) 21-11, 21-16 in the first round on 4 November and HAN Qian Xi (CHN) 21-10, 21-17 in the second round on 5 November, then lost the all-Japanese quarter-final on 6 November to Hina Akechi (5th seed) 21-13, 21-23, 8-21 after taking the first game and losing the second 21-23. It was her first defeat by Akechi in 2026, leaving her 3-1 up in their four meetings this year (Akechi went on to reach the semi-finals). ⚠️These three matches are not in the 20-match count below either (all scores from Miyazaki's side).

All Japan Championships

All Japan Championships・Keio Arena Tokyo, Chofu

Japan's national championship. The 80th edition runs from 24 to 30 December 2026 at Keio Arena Tokyo in Chofu. Miyazaki won the 78th edition in 2024 and was runner-up at the 79th in 2025, losing the final to Akane Yamaguchi. The 80th edition is played to 15 points, best of three — Japan adopted the new scoring ahead of the international calendar, which switches in January 2027. Entries are not known until the organisers publish them.

The China Open (Super 1000, Changzhou) in July took her to the semi-finals — and the two matches she won started in exactly the same way: a 16-21 opening game.

• 22 July, first round — Line KJAERSFELDT (DEN) 16-21, 21-7, 21-11. Holding the Dane to seven points in the second game turned the match.
• 23 July, second round — Beiwen ZHANG (USA) withdrew, so Miyazaki went through to the quarter-finals.
• 24 July, quarter-final — Putri Kusuma WARDANI (INA) 16-21, 21-11, 21-9, the same shape of match as the first round.
• 25 July, semi-final — CHEN Yufei (CHN) 17-21, 15-21. Chen went on to lose the final to Akane Yamaguchi.

Every score above comes from our own 2026 China Open page, where Fukushima and Matsumoto were the women's doubles runners-up.

In 2026 Miyazaki met Wang Zhiyi (CHN) twice, both times in a semi-final. She lost in February and won in September. Scores are written from Miyazaki's point of view.

• ❌28 February｜German Open semi-final: top seed Wang Zhiyi 10-21, 18-21 in 42 minutes. Wang went on to lose the final to Han Qianxi (CHN).
• ✅5 September｜China Masters semi-final: 2nd seed Wang Zhiyi 21-19, 23-21 in 60 minutes, both games by two points, to reach the final.

We do not explain why the result turned round; all we publish is the score and the clock. Both matches are on our own tournament pages. The same two matches, seen from the other side, are on Wang Zhiyi's page.

🆕On 20 September 2026 we added her three matches from the Swiss Open (Super 300, Basel) in March. That makes the twenty matches we had recorded up to 6 September 2026 read fourteen wins and six defeats. (That runs to the China Masters final on 6 September; her later matches at the Asian Games, the Arctic Open, the Denmark Open and the Korea Open are written separately and are not in this count.) The figure below lists them tournament by tournament.

• 🇯🇵She met Hina Akechi twice in these twenty matches and won both — the Swiss Open first round in March 21-8, 21-16 in straight games, and the China Masters first round in September 19-21, 21-17, 21-19 over three. The same two meetings, seen from the other side, are on Hina Akechi's page. She also beat her 21-18, 21-15 in the Denmark Open second round on 15 October, but lost the Korea Open quarter-final on 6 November 21-13, 21-23, 8-21: three wins and one defeat in four meetings in 2026 (the Denmark and Korea matches are not counted here).
• ❌The six defeats came in the German Open semi-final, the Swiss Open quarter-final, the Japan Open first round, the China Open semi-final, the World Championships third round and the China Masters final. Only the Japan Open was a first-round exit.
• ⚠️Three of the twenty were not played out: her opponent retired in the German Open second round and withdrew in the China Open second round, and Miyazaki herself retired at 6-11 in the opening game of the Swiss Open quarter-final. We do not write about why.

Scores are written from Miyazaki's point of view. Sources: our own tournament pages, the Nippon Badminton Association's day-by-day results and the English Wikipedia draws.

• 2025 — All Japan Championships — runner-up
  Lost the December final to Akane Yamaguchi, one year after winning the title. The 80th edition runs from 24 to 30 December 2026 at Keio Arena Tokyo in Chofu.
• 2024 — All Japan Championships — champion
  Won the women's singles at the 78th edition, Japan's national title. The event has no age or affiliation categories, so high-school players and professionals compete in the same draw.
• 2024 — China Open (Super 1000) — runner-up
  Beat Akane Yamaguchi in the September semi-final to reach her first Super 1000 final, then lost to WANG Zhiyi (CHN) 17-21, 15-21. Two years later she reached the semi-finals of the same tournament.
• 2024 — Orleans Masters (Super 300) — champion
  An all-Japanese final in March, won 21-18, 21-12 against Hina Akechi — the same player she meets in the China Masters first round in September 2026.
• 2022 — BWF World Junior Championships — girls' singles champion
  Santander, Spain, won as a first-year high-school student: 21-14, 20-22, 21-17 against YUAN Anqi (CHN). She was the fourth Japanese winner of the girls' singles title, after Nozomi Okuhara (2012), Akane Yamaguchi (2013 and 2014) and Riko Gunji (2019).

🏅Her September event was the China Masters 2026 (Super 750, Shenzhen, from 1 to 6 September), where she finished runner-up. She beat Hina AKECHI (JPN) — the same opponent she beat in the Orleans Masters final in March 2024 — 19-21, 21-17, 21-19, then Tanvi SHARMA (IND) 21-17, 18-21, 21-16, then Kaloyana NALBANTOVA (BUL) 21-12, 21-11 in the quarter-final on 4 September and 2nd seed WANG Zhi Yi (CHN) 21-19, 23-21 in the semi-final on 5 September. 🔴The final on 6 September went to top seed An Se-young (KOR), 17-21, 6-21 in 45 minutes. Akane Yamaguchi had lost to the same player in the other semi-final.

At the 2026 Asian Games in Ichinomiya, Aichi (from 20 to 29 September) that followed, she won team silver with Japan and went out in the third round of the individual event to P. V. Sindhu (IND) 9-21, 13-21 (match by match in the 2026 results above). In December comes the All Japan Championships (from 24 to 30 December), which she won in 2024 and finished second at in 2025.

🗓️October in Europe: First, on the Nippon Badminton Association's self-funded list (published 11 September 2026), she reached the quarter-finals of the Arctic Open 2026 (6–11 October, Finland, Super 500) as the second seed. She beat fellow Japanese Natsuki Nidaira 21-13, 21-14 (43 minutes) on 6 October and HAN Qian Xi (CHN) 21-9, 21-13 (33 minutes) on 8 October, then lost an all-Japanese quarter-final on 9 October to fifth seed Nozomi Okuhara 21-17, 17-21, 19-21 (70 minutes) after winning the first game. ⚠️These three matches are not yet in the count of twenty above (scores from Miyazaki's side). Next, as part of the Japan squad named the same day, the BWF draw for the Denmark Open 2026 (13–18 October, Super 750) has her as the sixth seed: she beat NGUYEN Thuy Linh (VIE) 21-17, 21-17 in the first round on 13 October and beat her compatriot Hina Akechi 21-18, 21-15 in the second round on 15 October, which took her into the quarter-finals (last eight). In the all-Japanese quarter-final on 16 October against Nozomi Okuhara, she retired at 4-7 in the third game after 21-17, 14-21, so her tournament ended in the last eight (no reason has been announced; these three matches are not in the count above either). It was their second quarter-final meeting in two weeks after the Arctic Open, and Okuhara won both. At the French Open 2026 (20–25 October, Super 750) the main draw published on 15 October had her as the 6th seed against Supanida KATETHONG (THA) in the first round, but she did not play (withdrew): in BWF's results for 21 October, KATETHONG played P.V. Sindhu (IND) and Miyazaki's name does not appear. No reason has been announced. She is not in the BWF main draw (published 21 October) for the following week's HYLO Open 2026 (27 October – 1 November, Germany) either, where the only Japanese entries are three men's singles players. At the Korea Open 2026 (3–8 November, Yeosu, Super 500), seeded 3rd, she beat HUANG Ching Ping (TPE) 21-11, 21-16 and HAN Qian Xi (CHN) 21-10, 21-17, then lost the all-Japanese quarter-final on 6 November to Hina Akechi 21-13, 21-23, 8-21. Match by match, see the card above. 🆕The draw for the Kumamoto Masters Japan 2026 (10–15 November, Kumamoto, Super 500) is out (official BWF draw, checked on 9 November 2026): she is the 5th seed and meets fellow Japanese player Manami SUIZU in the first round.

⚠️ For later events, entries are not known until each draw is published. We do not guess who will play. Linked pages are in Japanese.

In 2026 the first game told you very little about how Miyazaki's matches would end. She lost the opener 16-21 twice at the China Open and won both matches; at the World Championships she took the opener 21-17 and lost. A win-loss table cannot show that. Keeping the score game by game is what makes it readable.
