Evans
& Crome Shine In Welsh Open
Welshman
David Evans and New Zealander Louise Crome emerged triumphant in
the Welsh Open Squash Championships at the Welsh Institute of Sport
in
Cardiff.
Evans
joins a select group of players who have claimed PSA Tour title successes
as a qualifier: After surviving two round of qualifying without dropping a
game, the former world No3 - who retired more than three years ago - shot down
the eighth, second and sixth seeds before coming against unseeded Englishman
Joel Hinds in the men's final.
Hinds,
from Derbyshire, upset event favourite Jaymie Haycocks in the first round
before going on to claim his maiden Tour final appearance.
But Evans,
the 2003 champion who also holds four Welsh National titles and achieved the
most notable triumph of his career in 2000 when he became the British Open
champion, was too good for Hinds in the final.
The
33-year-old from
Pontypool
won 11-4, 11-9, 11-2 in 29 minutes to secure the seventh Tour title of his
career.
By
contrast, the top two seeds fought out the women's final, with favourite
Louise Crome holding off England's second seed Vicky Hynes to win
9-1, 9-3, 5-9, 9-4 in 41 minutes to claim the third WISPA World Tour
title of her career.
