South Korean Lee Yong-dae suffered double defeat in Wilson Swiss Open. First, he lost in the men's doules semi-final from Danish Carsten Mogensen/Mathias Boe 19-21, 21-19, and 21-14. Boe/Mogensen booked the final clash second-seeded Koo Kien Keat/Tan Boon Heong who conquer Cai Yun/Fu Haifeng, who had won All England last week, with a 23-21, 18-21, and 21-14 win.
