from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The 2nd World Championships in Speed ​​Badminton took place from June 13th to 15th, 2013 under the name "2nd ISBO Speedminton World Championships Germany 2013" in Berlin . The venue was the tennis grounds of the LTTC Rot-Weiß Berlin . The finals were played in the traditional Steffi Graf Stadium. The organizing association was Speedminton Gekkos Berlin e. V. The game was played in ten categories in which over 500 participants from more than 30 nations competed for the title in 1174 matches. What was special about this was that there were no fourth places because third place was not played out. So there were two bronze medalists in each category.

In the third set, Keber made it exciting again before she took the title at 16:14 and thus won her second final after 2011.

In the men's final, the Swede Melker Ekberg and Patrick Schüsseler from Germany faced each other. The German had surprisingly beaten the defending champion in the semifinals and took this tailwind into the final. There he didn't give the Swede a chance and won with 16:10, 16:13.
