Campbell Makes Knight's Day In Vancouver

 

Martin Knight beat fellow New Zealander Campbell Grayson in the final of the Comfort Inn Open to claim the third PSA World Tour title of his career at the $20,000 squash event at Evergreen Squash Club in Vancouver, Canada.

 

Fifth seed Knight, the world No48 from Wellington, proved too good on the day for his sixth-seeded compatriot, winning 11-6, 11-1, 11-5 in 53 minutes.

 

Comfort Inn Open Climaxes In Kiwi Clash

 

A pair of New Zealanders will contest the final of the Comfort Inn Open after fifth seed Martin Knight and sixth seed Campbell Grayson came through contrasting semi-finals of the $20,000 PSA World Tour squash event at Evergreen Squash Club in Vancouver, Canada.

 

Knight, the world No48 from Wellington who upset England's third seed Tom Richards in the quarters, battled for 73 minutes to overcome top seed Tarek Momen, last year's runner-up ranked 24 places higher, 13-11, 9-11, 11-9, 5-11, 11-9.

 

The win takes 26-year-old Knight through to his sixth PSA Tour final.

 

Earlier, close compatriot Campbell Grayson, from Auckland, ousted Mexico's No8 seed Arturo Salazar 11-5, 11-8, 11-7 in a 34-minute win which puts the 23-year-old into his fifth Tour final.

 

Knight & Grayson Celebrate Kiwi Day In Vancouver

 

New Zealanders Martin Knight and Campbell Grayson pulled off impressive upsets in the quarter-finals of the Comfort Inn Open to earn unexpected places in the last four of the $20,000 PSA World Tour squash event at Evergreen Squash Club in Vancouver, Canada.

 

Knight, the fifth seed from Wellington, battled for 42 minutes to overcome England's third seed Tom Richards 11-9, 11-8, 11-8.

 

"Richards seemed distracted by decisions that went against him early on and never seemed to shake off the ill effect," said tournament spokesman Paul Marley.  "Martin stayed focused and was relentless on the attack to secure his impressive victory."

 

Later, close compatriot Campbell Grayson, the sixth seed from Auckland, removed the event's No2 seed.  After dropping the first game, Colombia's highest-ever ranked player Miguel Angel Rodriguez, the world No27, took the second to draw level.

 

But 23-year-old Grayson, ranked 22 places lower, kept his focus and went on to beat Rodriguez 11-6, 5-11, 11-8, 11-7 in exactly one hour.

 

Tarek Takes Out Karwalski In Vancouver

 

Last year's runner-up Tarek Momen took a step closer towards a second successive appearance in the final of the Comfort Inn Open when he beat Australian Matthew Karwalski in four games in the first round of the $20,000 PSA World Tour squash event at Evergreen Squash Club in Vancouver, Canada.

 

The 21-year-old top seed from Egypt won 9-11, 11-4, 12-10, 11-8 in 41 minutes to set up a quarter-final clash with another Australian, seventh seed Ryan Cuskelly who also took four games to overcome Canadian qualifier Andrew McDougall.

 

The tournament’s second seed Miguel Angel Rodriguez had an even rougher ride from Scotland's Alan Clyne.  The 23-year-old from Edinburgh took the first two games and led 8-5 in the third only to have Colombian Rodriguez play some magnificent squash to even the game at 9-9 and eventually win 11-9.

 

Rodriguez won the fourth convincingly as errors seemed to be creeping into the Scot’s game.  The dramatic decider saw the score reach nine-all before Rodriguez won the concluding points to take the match 11-13, 8-11, 11-9, 11-4, 11-9 after 73 minutes.
