Chen upsets two-time champion Tai to win women's singles title at All England Open

Chen's victory is also the second from team China this year following Chen Qingchen and Jia Yifan's win in the women's doubles final.

The two 21-year-olds came from behind from one set down and saved two match points in the second set to beat third seed Japanese pair Mayu Matsumoto and Wakana Nagahara 18-21, 22-20, 21-11.

After the game, Chen said: "We're so happy." Jia added: "It's just fantastic to win the title this year and we beat really strong opponents through all the earlier matches - it just gave us so much motivation and confidence for future performances."

Zheng Siwei and Huang Yaqiong took a sweet revenge on their defeat in last year's final as they beat defending champions Yuta Watanabe and Arisa Higashino of Japan 21-17, 22-20, winning China the third title in this tournament.
