Greater Bendigo International 2015
Makin & Peltier Earn Maiden Tour Titles
Welshman Joel Makin and France's Cyrielle Peltier became PSA World
Tour title winners for the first time in their careers after taking
honours in the City of Greater Bendigo International at Bendigo
Squash Courts in Bendigo, Australia.
Makin, who reached the third Tour final of his career without
dropping a game, took on home hope Joshua Larkin, the third-seeded
Aussie who upset Pakistan favourite Tayyab Aslam in a tough
five-game semi.
The 20-year-old second seed from Pembrokeshire took the first game
11-4 and continued his dominance with 11-5 in the second. In the
third, players traded points until six-all when Makin again asserted
control and took the match 11-4 11-5 11-7 in 50 minutes.
Fourth seed Peltier faced top seed Milou van der Heijden in the
women's final. The 24-year-old from the Netherlands - ranked 19
places higher than Peltier - took the early lead. Peltier came back
strongly to win the next two games - and continued her momentum to
lead 8-3 in the fourth.
But van der Heijden fought back to eight-all. Peltier managed to
hold her nerve, however, and took out her first PSA title 6-11 11-6
