Briggs &
Cuskelly Capture KL Crowns
England's Lauren
Briggs and Australian Ryan Cuskelly emerged triumphant in the finals
of the NSC Series No3 Squash Championship at the Bukit Jalil National
Squash Centre in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.
Cuskelly, second
seed in the men's PSA Tour Super Satellite event, faced surprise
opponent seventh seed Waqar Mehboob in the final. The 17-year-old had
ousted top-seeded compatriot Shahid Zaman in the quarter-finals en-route
to his first appearance in a Tour final.
But the New
York-based 21-year-old from New South Wales was too strong for Peshawar teenager
Mehboob, winning 11-7, 11-8, 11-3 in 37 minutes to claim the third Tour title of
his career – but the first outside his home country.
Top seed Briggs
came through a tough quarter-final in the women's $8,000 WISPA World Tour
event – recovering from two games down to beat Australia's fifth seed Lisa
Camilleri.
The 29-year-old
world No20 from London faced local star Sharon Wee in the final. The
Malacca-born 31-year-old – ranked five places lower – was celebrating her second
successive final appearance in the NSC Series events in KL.
Wee battled for 30
minutes, but it was Briggs that prevailed, winning 11-4, 11-3, 11-8 to collect
the fifth Tour title of her career in her eighth final appearance.
