Lee Chong Wei makes Hong Kong Open final

LEE Chong Wei is through to the final of the Hong Kong Open, following his victory in the semi-final today.

Chong Wei, 33, who seemed to struggle in the first game made easy work of Angus in the second to win the tie 21-19, 21-14 at the Hong Kong coliseum.

The Malaysian, former world No 1, will play China's Tian Houwei tomorrow.

Houwei had beaten Indonesia's Anthony Ginting 18-21 21-11 21-6 in the other semi-final

Chong Wei - who only returned to competitive action in May, following an eight-month doping ban - has so far won four titles this year (US Open, Canada Open, French Open and China Open).

The two-time Olympic silver medallist, who is hoping for one last hurrah at the Games in Rio de Janeiro next year, will also be competing in the Macau Open GP Gold next week.
