World No . 1 Lee Chong Wei stopped for a fleeting moment in disbelief after hitting the match point in the men's singles final of the All-England at the National Indoor Arena in Birmingham yesterday.And when it finally dawned upon time , a jubilant Chong Wei punched his fists in sheer joy. He had finally taken down a stubborn Kenichi Tago of Japan 21-19 , 21-19 in a 47-minute final to be crowned the 100th champion of the world's oldest badminton tournament.
" I just could not believe that I have finally won it after dreaming about it for so long , " said Chong Wei, who is succeeded to win the title in his seventh attempt. " This is so special because it is the 100th year and everyone will surely remember me for a long time . "
That's our boy : Lee Ah Chai ( in green shirt ) , Chong Wei's father ,with his wife Khor Kim Chooi ( seated ) and relatives at their home
