Pilley & Pittock Take Honours
At Queensland Open
Australians Cameron Pilley, the top seed from New South Wales, and
Amelia Pittock, the third seed from Victoria, claimed the men's and
women's squash titles respectively at the Queensland Open in Rockhampton
today.
World No60 Pilley, the 2002 Western Australia Open champion, defeated
fourth seed Peter Hughes - a fellow Australian appearing in his first
PSA Tour final - 15-7 15-7 15-8 to clinch his first Queensland Open
title. He won all his four matches at the Open in straight games to
claim his fourth PSA title.
Pittock, ranked 35 in the world, created an upset when she came back
from a game down to beat top seed Heidi Mather of NSW, ranked four
places above, 5-9 9-1 10-8 9-4 to score her first Queensland Open title.
Queensland-based Pittock, aged 20 and one of Australia's most exciting
young squash players, reached the Australian Open semi-finals in
Adelaide last month - but was celebrating her maiden WISPA World Tour
final appearance in Rockhampton.
It was Mather's second successive defeat in a Queensland Open final. In
2002 she went down to Victorian Dianne Desira, who was a first round
loser this time after suffering on court with a stomach virus.
