SINGAPORE: South Korea's An Se-young won her fifth title this year as she outclassed Japan's world number one Akane Yamaguchi in straight games 21-16, 21-14 to capture the Singapore Open badminton on Sunday .

"I've been feeling very confident since the start of the year and I'm very pleased I found my winning formula," An, ranked second in the world, said.

Indonesia's Anthony Ginting became the first player in 20 years since China's Chen Hong to successfully defend his Singapore men's singles title when he defeated Anders Antonsen 21-16, 21-13.
