(Reuters) - Malaysia's Lee Chong Wei continued his triumphant return following an eight-month doping ban by beating Hong Kong's Angus Ng Ka Long to win the Canada Open on Sunday.

The double Olympic silver medallist and twice world championship runner-up proved too much for his 21-year-old opponent as he took the title 21-17 21-13 in Calgary a week after winning the U.S. Open in New York.
