Lamsfuss and partner Marvin Seidel showed some class badminton, coming back from a game down to win 17-21 21-16 21-17.
Lamsfuss had endured a trying period in recent months. A knee injury in June forced the reigning European men's and mixed doubles champion into surgery and a lengthy period of rehabilitation. In the months that followed, he participated at a few tournaments but struggled to reach his full potential. He also skipped last week’s Arctic Open due to not being fully fit.
“I’m improving nutrition again, having a lot of physio treatments, and I have to say they’ve done a great job. A lot of doctor appointments and with my physical coach as well, so it was a lot that we have done so we could win today,” said the 29-year-old.
