Hong Kong’s Lau and Tong Victorious In Devonport

Tasmanian Open trophy
The Hong Kong duo of Tsz Kwan Lau and Tsz-Wing Tong took the titles at
the Challenger 10 level City of Devonport Tasmanian Open this weekend,
with both beating Malaysian opposition to win their respective finals.
The pair both came into the competition as the No.2 seeds, and Lau was
also aiming for back-to-back titles, having won the Volkswagen Bega Open
just seven days earlier. Thanks to his ranking, he received a bye
through to the second round, where he then defeated compatriot Tang Ming
Hong in straight games.
The Hongkonger then came up against another countryman, in No.8 seed Chi
Him Wong, in the quarter finals of the competition, winning again in
straight games, thanks to taking the momentum with a first game
tie-break victory. He then lost the opening game of his semi-final
against Japan’s Ryunosuke Tsukue, but fought back to win in four to make
it through to a second final in as many weeks.
In the final, Lau came up against Malaysia’s Addeen Idrakie, the No.3
seed for the tournament, and he required just over half an hour to make
it back-to-back titles in Australia, winning 11-4, 11-8, 11-2 to secure
the win, and to claim his second victory in the month of September.
Like her fellow compatriot, Tsz-Wing Tong was also the No.2 seed at the
City of Devonport Tasmanian Open, and after a bye through the opening
day’s play, she took on Switzerland’s Celine Walser in the second round.
She took the win in straight games, before then going on to defeat No.5
seed Aira Azman of Malaysia in three in the quarter finals, thanks to
winning two tie-breaks.
In the last four, the Hongkonger got the better of Australia’s Jessica
Turnbull, the No.7 seed for the competition, coming from behind after
the home hope took the first game of their contest. A second game
tie-break win saw the momentum turn in Tong’s favour, and she went on to
win in four games.

The final saw Tong take on Malaysia’s No.3 seed Chan Yiwen, and she
breezed through to the victory, winning in less than 30 minutes, 11-3,
11-3, 11-8 to secure her first title of the season, and make sure it was
double delight for Hong Kong in Devonport.

Wildcard Hudson
Into Round Two

The City of Devonport Tasmanian Open got underway on Wednesday afternoon
at the Devonport Squash Club in Tasmania, Australia, and wildcard Jack
Hudson took the big upset win on the opening day.
Hudson, one of three wildcards in the men’s event at the Challenger 10
level competition, took on Malaysia’s Ong Sai Hung in the first round of
the tournament, and was in control on home soil throughout the early
stages, taking a two-game lead. The Malaysian fought back, though, to
win the next two to send the match into a decider but Hudson recovered,
and won the fifth 11-3 to book his place in the last 16 of the event.
He was not the only surprise winner in the men’s draw, with France’s
Manu Paquemar also knocking out higher-ranked opposition. The Frenchman
took on Pakistan’s Zahir Shah and was in control throughout the match,
winning in straight games in just 19 minutes to advance to the second
round in Devonport.
There were no surprises in the women’s event, with a couple of late
withdrawals prior to the tournament starting meaning that there were
only five matches on day one. Former World No.1 Rachael Grinham was one
of those in action, and she dropped just five points in her match
against Pakistan’s Noor ul Huda on route to the last 16.
The second round of the City of Devonport Tasmanian Open will take place
on Thursday, September 8, with the seeded players coming into the draw
in the last 16 of the Challenger 10 level competition.
