Alexander & Chinappa Celebrate KL Successes
Australian Zac Alexander and India’s
Joshna Chinappa both celebrated their second title successes in the
Malaysian capital after winning the NSC Super Squash Satellite No4
trophies at the Bukit Jalil National Squash Centre in Kuala
Lumpur.
Third seed Alexander made his breakthrough
in the semi-finals of the $6,000 men's PSA Tour event when he beat
local hero Ivan Yuen, the No7 seed who knocked out favourite
Mike Corren in the previous round.
In the final, the 19-year-old from Brisbane
faced fourth seed Stephane Galifi, the Frenchman who won last
week's No3 event in KL. But it was Alexander's day as the Australian
teenager battled for 34 minutes to claim his 11-8, 3-11, 11-9, 12-10
victory - and the second PSA Tour title of his career.
It was the second KL triumph in seven days
for Joshna Chinappa in the women's $8,000 WISPA World Tour event.
The 22-year-old top seed from Chennai faced surprise opponent Low Wee
Wern in the final.
The third seed from Malaysia had beaten
Melody Francis in the earlier round - the unseeded Australian having
ousted second seed Lim Yoke Wah in the first round.
But Chinappa, facing her fourth successive
Malaysian in the draw, was too strong for her 18-year-old opponent -
winning 11-8, 11-7, 11-6 in 22 minutes to claim her second Tour title.
