Malaysia's Lee Chong Wei continued his triumphant return following an eight-month doping ban by beating Hong Kong's Angus Ng Ka Long to win the Canada Open.
Lee wins Canada Open after defeating the 21-year-old Angus Ng Ka Long of Hong Kong 21-17, 21-13 to claim a back-to-back title.
It was Lee’s second title in two weeks since coming back from an eight-month ban over a doping violation. Last week he won the US Open Grand Prix Gold in New York.
Meanwhile, Canadian Michelle Li won the women's singles when she defended the titleby beating Kaori Imabeppu of Japan 21-17, 25-23.
The win in the lower rated Grand Prix tournament will boost his world ranking of 99 as he bids to qualify for next year's Olympics in Rio de Janeiro and continues preparations ahead of the world championships in August.
