Finn Mustonen Marks Maiden Tour Title At
Austrian Open
Truly deserving of the
title 'Flying Finn', qualifier Henrik Mustonen raced through the field of
the Austrian Open in Vienna to win his maiden PSA World Tour
title at the $6,000 Super Satellite event at the Manhatten Squash Club.
The 18-year-old from
Hollola, near Lahti in Finland, pulled off a succession of upsets after
surviving two rounds of qualifying - his most notable scalp being third-seeded
Dutchman Dylan Bennett in the quarter-finals.
His opponent in the final
was Alan Clyne, the fifth seed from Scotland who made his breakthrough
after despatching second-seeded Welshman Rob Sutherland in the
quarter-finals.
But there was no stopping
Mustonen - the youngest player in the event - in the final as the teenager
defeated Clyne 12-10, 11-5, 11-9 in 44 minutes.
The match marked Mustonen's
second appearance in a Tour final, but his first title triumph.
