Lee wins 1st title since ban

FORMER world No. 1 Lee Chong Wei won the US Open on Sunday to claim his first title since returning from an eight-month doping ban. The 32-year-old Malaysian, twice an Olympic silver medalist and world championship runner-up, beat Hans-Kristian Vittinghus of Denmark 22-20 21-12 in Brentwood, New York. Lee only returned to court last month after testing positive for dexamethasone at the world championships in August. Facing a career-ending two-year ban, Lee convinced the BWF to reduce his back-dated ban to eight months.
