The 2002 Yonex All England Open was the 92nd edition of the All England Open Badminton Championships. It was held from 5 March to 9 March 2002, in Birmingham, England. The scoring system changed to the first player to reach seven points over five sets. This change was brought in for the benefit of the viewing public and television cameras but it proved to be unpopular and soon reverted to the original scoring system.

It was a four star tournament and the prize money was US$125,000.
