Son sees off Chen in final of Malaysia Masters

South Korea’s Son Wan-ho put on a masterful display of badminton to easily beat China’s Chen Long 21-17, 21-19 and clinch the Malaysia Masters title yesterday.

Chen appeared no match for Son throughout their showdown, with the South Korean hitting impressive baseline smashes and pushing his opponent to make a series of unforced errors. Son, seeded fourth in the Kuala Lumpur tournament, benefited from an extra rest day after his semifinal opponent Liew Daren conceded a walkover on Saturday due to an injury. In the women’s singles, Ratchanok Intanon successfully defended her title with a 21-9, 22-20 triumph over Spain’s Carolina Marin.
