China's Chen Long put on a display of explosive athleticism to beat Malaysian world No.1 Lee Chong Wei in the final of the Hong Kong Open Sunday, as Chinese players stormed to a clean sweep.

With thousands of spectators cheering him on, second-seeded Chen won 21-19, 21-17 against the Olympic silver medalist, who was the tournament's top seed but ended the men's singles final looking exhausted.

"I didn't think that I would win, but I thought I had the ability to beat him so the results are pretty good," said Chen, who was fresh from victory last week in the China Open.
