The Chinese duo repeated their group stage win over Mohammad Ahsan/Hendra Setiawan, who fell off after a sensational comeback in the second game, 21-17 19-21 21-12.
The Indonesians looked down and out at 10-16 in the second, but Ou’s nervousness showed, and his errors helped Ahsan and Setiawan draw level. However, after 9-all in the third, the Chinese stamped their authority and went on to take their third title of the year.
“We’re very happy to win the championship, it was one of our goals. And we’re so thankful to the fans for always cheering for us,” said Liu Yu Chen.
