Birmingham, Mar 9: World and Olympic champion Lin Dan of China clinched his fourth All England title on Sunday with a 21-19, 21-12 victory over world number one Lee Chong Wei of Malaysia.
The match was a re-run of the last year's Olympic final in Beijing where Lin swept to a 21-12, 21-8 success.
It was tougher going on Sunday but apart from a brief spell in the first game when Lee led 19-17 Lin was generally in control.
In the second game the Chinese reeled off seven points in a row from 14-12 to 21-12 to register his ninth victory over his big rival in their last 10 meetings.
