Great netting, incredible defense, perfect sideline smashes and perfect placement of back shots, this performance is just like his prime time a few years back :') so proud that he's still giving his all.

YES! WONDERFUL PLAY FROM LEE CHONG WEI! SO HAPPY NOW :D

He's back.

LCW -- a great badminton player!! I predicted he would lose to CL but he proved me wrong. My high respect!!

I'm so so happy to see the result this morning. Truly a crowned king and has made I believe many of us enjoyed badminton from the past many years.

holy molly this is one of the best final in the year, LCW played SO FREAKING WELL in this series, the movements, choice of shots, confidence, in no way CL played a bad game, LCW just outplayed and did everything right one step ahead! Congrats on the first China Open title!

Is not easy to beat Chen Long in his own land...but u proof it ..Dato Lee...

What was incredible was a complete lack of elation in Lee Chong Wei after beating Lin Dan and Chen Long. Nothing says I mean business than a lack of emotion upon success. It was clear that LCW was playing more to prove that he's still got what it takes than to just win this title, which happened as a happy side effect. Great game and an even greater player!

Chen Long didn't perform at his best, but still average. Meanwhile Lee Chong Wei was very confident with his shot which brought him better defense and great accuracy in the attacking plays. Great game LCW, we have been waiting for so long.

it is all about hardwork! young malaysian players should learn from LCW. he played superbly today, no doubt he is back :)

At 55:40, its looked like LCW's coach was having an asthma or something lol

At this age with such performance, it's unprecedented. Well done LCW. You seems to be faster than before.

for those who think cl lose on purpose, there's no way china would do this like for God sake, it's china open not just any tournament, IT'S THEIR PRIDE!! If they wanna do that, they could've just let lcw won in previous tournament. I think it's just that LCW played at his best and CL is under alot of pressure and he did tons of mistake.

Watched this LIVE yesterday! It was so exciting! LCW won French Superseries few weeks back before this China Superseries, his momentum is up there! This match against CL shows the power of "Mind Over Body"!!!

thats how he play badminton AMAZING !.. CONGRATS LCW.. HE'S BACK!

he is back . LCW is back . oh my legend !!! :)))

I already knew that if Lee Chong Wei won, hates are going to say he's on dope or Chen Long wasn't playing is his best. Okay people... First you say no one can beat Chen and now that Lee Chong Wei did, you know you're just making excuses. Just accept the fact that LCW is still on top! He had a hard lineup of opponents to beat, the biggest one is Lin Dan, and he came out on top!

Awesome lee Chong Wei, if he continues this way, lcw will win the 2016 rio Olympics, way to go lee, my hero!

congrats LCW! so happy for him.

Lee Chong Wei!! The strongest player is back!!

It is sad to hear people saying that LCW won over LD and CL just because of luck. When LCW won, he did win bc of his great performance. Even if he won because CL did not play well, it was LCW's great defense and other factors which made CL losing confidence and not playing well.

Great job lee Chong Wei. patience is all it take for you to win. Keep it up!

congrats lcw beating goatdan and chen in succesive rounds thats amazing.well deserved.congrats to chen also for his consistency. he has so many ss titles this year.

CL was forced to make those uncharacteristic mistakes. LCW's defence was formidable, it frustrated CL, hence he had to search for perfect shots, he attempted to smash down the lines but got them wide most of the time. LCW kept coming back with great variation and intense speed plus accuracy; that caught CL. This is one of the tournaments where LCW played very well. Credit goes to him

damn happy! I watched it live and keep screaming every point he score!!!

LCW has a such creative play!! And this is just amazing 1:01:10

Lee Chong wei VS Chen Long 💫✨👆👍

The semis game with Lin Dan is more like a finals game than this. Chen Long is way off from his usual game. Congrats to Mr. Lee!!

He deserved this, Lee Chong Wei needed to get back to his normal which is at the top. Chen Long I think under-estimated Chong Wei, he expected a bit less intensity form LCW in my opinion.Nonetheless, LCW's return is just proof that He is a Legend.

Chen Long is definietly world number one and current best player.. but he is NOT A LEGEND like lee chong wei and Lin Dan. All the best LCW go for Gold @ brazil

LCW pulls out great rally at such a point 1:00:54, CL started trying too hard cos he feeling the pressure!!

What I love about LCW/Lin D/Chen Long is that they are cool, don't have attitude like Danish players showing fists to opponents on most of the winning rallies while staring in the eyes. Come on, time to grow up. You can never be a true champion with such attitude. A lot from young generation are watching you and learning from you.

Now Lee chong wei looks like condensation of Lin dan and himself.. he is good at controlling and attacking as well :)

Gillian: Chen Long trsending a message to Lee Chong Wei DLCW: Message received, message replied! Chen Long: *packet lost*

Lee Chong was Wei Wei Wei too strong this time against Chen Long.

Exactly 10 unforced errors in the second game. How often do you see Chen Long do that? He was definitely outplayed but I think unforced errors were due to saving Home title :) Psychological pressure Does play an important role. Nevertheless wonderful game.

lcw rulez

Not sure why I got a feeling that this whole thing was orchestrated. It's so uncharacteristic for Chen Long to commit so many unforced errors.

There's no way that LCW hasn't been doping. His smashes are faster than Jorgensen's and his stamina is even better than Chen Long. I don't think he was as good as this when he's in his 20s.

***** Most successful senior players tend to use more drop shots,net shots. But LCW is still hitting lots of hard smashes and able to do it multiple times during a rally. I think his boody shape is similar with Lin and Gade: thin limbs, small bones but very powerful. Lin and Gade also have better personels and facilities to help them maintain their form. His genes might be too good if that's because of genetics.

Quang Pham i think he was pressuring chen long all the time during this match. because he lost mst of the matches against lin and chen after the olympics. it's very strange that he could play in high speed and beat both of them in two consecutive days. if his current form is not better than 5 years ago, it's at least better than 5 monthes ago. i don't think it's reasonable for a 33 year old.

+Quang Pham Your opinion is that a player's level of performance should be highly steady and not fluctuating throughout a tournament. While I accept that CL's performance has indeed been so for quite a long time, during this particular match he did seem to have lost his usual control - both psychologically and physically. Just look at all the unforced errors, suddenly succumbed to lots of LCW's powerful smashes (either missing a smash or fending it off in poor quality, enabling LCW to secure a kill), etc. It's not like him any more. What lies behind all this I just can't figure out, but he was certainly at his worst, at least for the past couple of years.

melaleuca revolution gold CL only made errors in the last half of the 2nd match. But it was obvious for the reason behind it. LCW's defense this time was superb and that caused CL to get frustrated and made errors as he was attacking to get back in the game. The similar scenario happened in WC 2015 final when LCW was winning in the first game and CL started to attack and got back to the game. LCW at that time couldnt stopped CL's attack but this time he did that excellently which was the key to defeat CL. If CL was at his worst then it just meant that LCW forced CL to play his worst and won the match deservedly. It was the same thing happened in olympics 2008 final because LCW at that time was much stronger that how we saw him lost to LD. Its the strategy and mental game.
