World No.22 Lee created a sensation at the All England by reaching the final, where he gave a great account of his abilities. With defending champion Lin Chun Yi and Korea Open 2024 champion Lu Guang Zu also in the top quarter of the draw, Vitidsarn faces a difficult path in his quest for a first Swiss Open title.

In the bottom half of the draw, second seed Anders Antonsen will start against Hong Kong Open 2024 runner-up Lei Lan Xi.

Two past winners, Kidambi Srikanth (2015) and HS Prannoy (2016) will face each other in the opening round.
