Herbert
and Tovar Take Shock Wins
There were a couple of surprise results on the second day of the Madeira
International, with England’s Simon Herbert and Colombian Maria Tovar
both making it through to the last eight on the Portuguese island.
England’s Herbert took on Egypt’s Ibrahim Elkabbani, the No.6 seed, in
the second round, and won in straight games against the man that won the
University of Birmingham Open earlier this year to qualify for the CIB
PSA World Championships.
The Egyptian was in contention throughout the first game, but he saw
Herbert take it on a tie-break, and from then on, the Englishman had
full control of the match. He dropped just ten more points across the
next two games to win in three, setting up a clash with the tournament’s
top seed and home favourite Rui Soares in the quarters.
There was a single surprise in the women’s Challenger 3 level
competition as well, as Colombia’s Maria Tovar defeated Germany’s Aylin
Gunsav in straight games to make the last eight. The Colombian took the
first game 11-5 of their first round clash, and carried the momentum
through the next two games to win in three, and she will now face
France’s Lea Barbeau, the No.3 seed, in Friday’s quarter finals.
The quarter finals of the Madeira International will take place on
Friday, September 9, with all the action from the Galo Active Health
Club being streamed live on the Galomar TV YouTube channel. You can also
keep up to date with live scores from the tournament on the PSA World
Tour’s website here.

Preview
Challenger 10 and 3 level Madeira International, which will take place
from Wednesday, September 7 to Sunday, September 11 on the Portuguese
island of Madeira.
The Galo Active Health Club will play host to the tournament, which will
feature a men’s Challenger 10 level draw, where Portugal’s No.1 Rui
Soares will be aiming to go one better than last year. He lost out in
last year’s final to Egypt’s Moustafa El Sirty, but will be the top seed
this time round, and aiming for another Challenger Tour crown.
Egypt’s Aly Abou Eleinen, Hungarian No.1 Balazs Farkas and Englishman
Ben Coleman will be the other members of the top four seeds, in a 24-man
draw that will feature players from 13 nationalities, including
Colombia, Israel and Brazil.
Colombian Ronald Palomino, who took his first win on the PSA World Tour
at the CIB Zed Squash Open a couple of weeks ago, is joined by Egypt’s
Ibrahim Elkabbani, Spaniard Ivan Perez and Welshman Emyr Evans in
rounding out the top eight seeds in the men’s competition.
England’s Richie Fallows will be appearing on Tour for only the second
time in 2022, while the Irish duo of Sean Conroy and Sam Buckley, the
nation’s leading two male players, will meet in the opening round of the
tournament.
For the first time, the Madeira International will also feature a
women’s event, with 16 players vying to win the Challenger 3 level crown
on the Portuguese island. Germany’s Katerina Tycova will be the top seed
for the event, and she will be aiming to capture her first Tour title
come the end of the weekend.
Scotland’s Katriona Allen and England’s Kiera Marshall will both be
among the seeds, along with the French duo of Lea Barbeau and Ella
Galova, Ukraine’s Anastasiia Kostiukova and another German in Aylin
Gunsav.
Sofia Aviero Pita, the Portuguese No.1, will be the leading home
favourite in the draw as the No.5 seed, but she will be joined by
compatriots Catarina Nunes and Mariana Ventura Martins, who will both be
aiming to cause upsets in front of a home crowd.
The event takes place from Wednesday, September 7 to Sunday, September
11 at the Galo Active Health Club in Madeira. Follow the PSA Challenger
Tour on Twitter and Facebook for daily updates from the event.
