It's Ten For Tuominen At Pacific Athletic
Club Open
Finn Olli Tuominen
marked up the tenth PSA World Tour title of his career at the Pacific
Athletic Club Open after beating Canadian Shahier Razik in the final
of the $22,500 event at the Pacific Athletic Club in Redwood City
in the US state of California.
The 30-year-old from
Helsinki dropped just one game en-route to his 15th Tour final, dismissing
unexpected opponent Stephane Galifi, the No7 seed from Italy, in straight
games in the semi-finals.
Second seed Razik
celebrated his fourth successive appearance in a Tour semi-final in North
America this month by beating defending champion Julian Illingworth, the
No3 seed from New York, in a hard-fought 65-minute straight games encounter.
But top seed Tuominen was
in control from the outset in the final, winning 11-7, 11-2, 12-10 in 58 minutes
to secure his second trophy of the year after winning the Finnish Open on
home soil last month for the third time.
Galifi Makes Pacific Athletic Club Semis
Seventh-seeded Italian
Stephane Galifi claimed an unexpected place in the semi-finals of the
Pacific Athletic Club Open after overcoming Malta's Bradley Hindle in
the $22,500 PSA World Tour squash event at the Pacific Athletic Club
in Redwood City in the US state of California.
Hindle, a qualifier,
reached the last eight after upsetting New Zealand's fourth seed Martin
Knight in the opening round.
And the Netherlands-based
29-year-old stretched Galifi, the world No58 from Aix-en-Provence, for four
games and 65 minutes before the No7 seed finally clinched his 11-8, 11-3, 8-11,
16-14 victory.
Galifi will now face
top-seeded Finn Olli Tuominen for a place in the final.
The other semi-final will
be an all-North American clash between defending champion Julian Illingworth,
the No3 seed from New York, and Canada's second seed Shahier Razik, from
Toronto.
Record six-time US national
champion Illingworth took just 30 minutes to despatch Jan Koukal, the No8
seed from the Czech Republic, 11-5, 11-5, 11-5, while Razik ended New Zealand
interest in the event by beating fifth seed Campbell Grayson 12-10,
12-10, 11-4 in 50 minutes.
Hindle Stops Knight In Pacific Athletic
Club Upset
Malta qualifier Bradley
Hindle pulled off the only upset in the first round of the Pacific
Athletic Club Open when he beat fourth seed Martin Knight to reach
the quarter-finals of the $22,500 PSA World Tour squash event at the
Pacific Athletic Club in Redwood City in the US state of California.
The Netherlands-based
29-year-old downed New Zealander Knight 11-6, 11-6, 11-4 and will now meet
seventh-seeded Italian Stephane Galifi for a place in the semi-finals.
Defending champion
Julian Illingworth, the third seed from New York who is leading US interest
in the event, despatched Australian qualifier Wade Johnstone 12-10, 11-8,
11-2 in just 28 minutes to earn his anticipated place in the last eight.
