Chinese players secured both the men's and women's singles titles on the final day of action at the Badminton World Federation (BWF) Australian Open at the Quaycentre in Sydney.

Qualifier Lu Guangzu secured the men's title with a win against compatriot Zhou Zeqi.

The world number 165 thrashed Zhou 21-8 in the first game and it looked like he was set to secure a comfortable victory.

Zhou, however, recovered well and pushed Lu close in the second game, but it was not enough as Lu eventually emerged as a 23-21 winner, giving him a 2-0 win overall.

Unseeded Chinese player Cai Yanyan, who knocked out the number three seed Cheung Ngan Yi of Hong Kong in yesterday's semi-final, took the women's title with a comfortable 21-14, 21-13 win over Japan's Ayumi Mine.
