Nguyen Tien Minh rose two places in the world badminton rankings to No 7 after his triumph at the Yonex OCBC US Open GPG badminton tournament last week in California.

Minh's new ranking will help him when the Badminton World Federation organises draws for the world championships on July 22. If Minh is seeded as one of the top players at the tourney, he may be able to avoid strong rivals during the competition's early rounds.

The world tournament will be held on August 5-11 in Guangzhou, China.
