Rafael Rallies
To Paraguay Success
Brazilian
Rafael F Alarcon successfully defended his title in the 'Tour de las
Americas' Paraguay Open when he beat second seed Christopher Gordon
in the final of the PSA World Tour Satellite squash event at Club
Internacional de Tenis in the Paraguayan capital Asuncion.
In the
semi-finals, the 33-year-old from Sao Paolo despatched eight-seeded Mexican
Miled Zarazua in straight games, while New York-based Gordon ended local
interest in the event by beating Esteban Casarino, the tournament
organiser from Asuncion, in four games.
But in the
final, Alarcon beat a US opponent for the second year in a row with an 11-7,
8-11, 11-7, 11-4 victory over Gordon, the world No79.
The triumph
marks Alarcon's 14th PSA Tour title - and extends the Brazilian's record
as the South American with the most Tour titles, ahead of Colombian Miguel
Angel Rodriguez who boasts 12.
