Max Makes It Two In A Row In Hong Kong

Local hero Max Lee successfully retained his Crocodile Challenge Cup title when he beat Malaysian Muhd Asyraf Azan in today's final of the PSA World Tour Challenger 10 squash event at the Hong Kong Squash Centre.

The Hong Kong national champion had to overcome compatriot Dick Lau, the 2009 champion, in the semi-finals before reaching the second Crocodile final and the seventh Tour final of his career.

The other semi was also a battle between two nationals - in which third seed Azan finally prevailed in a 101-minute marathon when unseeded Malaysian Ivan Yuen was forced to retire at match-ball down in the fifth with severe cramp.

Showing no signs of his ordeal 24 hours earlier, 23-year-old Azan took the opening game in the final.

But Lee, also 23 but ranked more than 20 places higher than his opponent, took control from the second - and after 48 minutes secured his 8-11, 11-7, 11-2, 11-3 title triumph.

The win marks the fifth PSA Tour title of Lee's career.

Lee & Lau Ensure Home Finalist In Hong Kong

Home heroes Max Lee and Dick Lau ensured that there will be Hong Kong interest in the Crocodile Challenge Cup final for the sixth successive year when they both eased through today's quarter-finals of the PSA World Tour Challenger 10 squash event at the Hong Kong Squash Centre.

Favourite Lee, the defending champion, was taken to four games by Mahesh Mangaonkar before beating the qualifier from India 11-8, 11-2, 10-12, 11-7 in 47 minutes.

Lee will now meet Lau, the Hong Kong number two, for a place in the final. The 25-year-old fourth seed, winner of the title in 2009, recorded his second successive straight games win in the event by beating Malaysian Elvinn Keo 11-9, 11-6, 11-7.

But there was a substantial upset contrived by a Malaysian in the other half of the draw when Ivan Yuen ousted Matthew Karwalski, the second seed from Australia.

The 21-year-old from Kuala Lumpur became the only unseeded player to make the last four after battling for 60 minutes to defeat Karwalski, ranked almost 20 places higher, 7-11, 11-7, 11-7, 4-11, 11-5.

In an all-Malaysian semi, Yuen will face Muhd Asyraf Azan, the Selangor-born third seed who beat Kuwait's Bader Al Hussaini 5-11, 11-6, 11-8, 11-8.

Lee & Lau Lift Home Spirits In Hong Kong

To the delight of the crowd at the Hong Kong Squash Centre, the country's top two ranked players Max Lee and Dick Lau secured places in the quarter-finals of the Crocodile Challenge Cup after straight games wins in today's opening round of the PSA World Tour Challenger 10 squash event.

Top seed Lee, the Hong Kong national champion ranked 43 in the world, raced to an 11-5, 11-5, 14-12 victory over Canadian Fred Reid in just 22 minutes.

Lau, the fourth seed and the Hong Kong No2, survived two tie-break games against determined opponent Harinder Pal Sandhu before ultimately prevailing 11-9, 13-11, 13-11 over the Indian in 50 minutes to earn his anticipated place in the last eight.

But there was unexpected Indian success when Mahesh Mangaonkar became the only qualifier to survive the first round after beating higher-ranked Frenchman Lucas Serme 11-5, 11-4, 11-9.

The 17-year-old from Mumbai's reward is a quarter-final clash with home favourite Max Lee.
