Schmohl
Celebrates Historic Swiss Success In Geneva
Zurich-born Gaby
Schmohl celebrated a historic breakthrough in the final of the Swiss Open
when she became the first Swiss winner of the women's squash title in the 37th
year of the event in Geneva.
Remarkably, the
breakthrough success comes just a year after Nicolas Mueller became the
first home winner of the men's crown.
Unseeded Schmohl,
making her return to full-time squash after a three-year absence, made her
stunning breakthrough in the $4,000 WISPA World Tour event when she
battled to a 11-4, 5-11, 11-8, 7-11, 11-9 victory over top seed Orla Noom
in the semi-finals.
Now in the maiden
Tour final of her career and spurred on by the excited crowd at Geneva Squash
Club, the 29-year-old from Langnau recovered from a game down to topple
second-seeded Italian Manuela Manetta 6-11, 11-9, 11-7, 11-7 to secure
her remarkable title triumph.
By contrast, the
final of the men's $4,000 PSA World Tour Satellite event featured the
event's two top seeds. Dutch favourite Dylan Bennett reached the climax
after beating Egypt's fourth seed Mazen Gamal in four games, while second
seed Karim Abdel Gawad prevailed in an all-Egyptian semi-final against
Ali Farag, an unseeded 17-year-old from Cairo.
But in-form
Bennett, the 25-year-old from Eindhoven who won the Playa Blanca Open in
Peru last month, was too strong for his 18-year-old opponent from Cairo, winning
the final 11-7, 11-8, 11-8.
