14-May, Semi-Finals:
Top Seeds In Brest Open Final
England's top seed Dominique Lloyd-Walter and second seed Olga
Puigdemont Sola, from Spain, will meet in the final of the Women's Brest
Open in the French coastal city.
Lloyd-Walter maintained her fine form in the event as she cruised to a
9-2 9-4 9-0 win over Denmark's third seed Line Hansen. The impressive
22-year-old world No30 from Harrow has dropped just nine points in three
matches.
Sola was given a tougher ride in her semi-final against fourth seed
Katline Cauwels. The Belgian took the opening game - and forced the
fourth into a tie-break - but the Spanish favourite eventually prevailed
to win 8-10 9-4 9-3 10-8.
14-May, Quarters:
Seeds Are Best In Brest
The top four seeds comfortably overcame their quarter-final opposition in the
Women's Brest Squash Open to take up their anticipated places in the semi-finals
of the WISPA World Tour event in the French coastal city of Brest.
England's top seed Dominique Lloyd-Walter crushed France's Floch Pascale 9-2 9-0
9-1 to set up a meeting with Denmark's third seed Line Hansen, a 9-7 9-5 9-5
victor over fifth-seeded Belgian Kim Hannes-Teunen.
Belgium's fourth seed Katline Cauwels took four games to get the better of
England's unseeded Lauren Siddall 9-1 5-9 9-3 9-3 - and is rewarded with a
semi-final clash against the No2 seed Olga Puigdemont Sola after the Spaniard
beat Belgium's European Junior Champion Charlie De Rycke 9-5 9-7 9-5.
13-May, First Round:
Siddall Silences
Huisman in Brest
England's unseeded Lauren Siddall claimed
an unexpected place in the quarter-finals of the Women's Brest Squash
Open when she upset Margriet Huisman, the sixth seed from the
Netherlands, 9-2 9-7 9-1.
The 19-year-old from Pontefract in Yorkshire will now meet Katline
Cauwels after the fourth-seeded Belgian beat Dagmar Vermeulen 6-9 9-1
9-5 10-8.
Laurence Bois also failed to survive the first round in a domestic
upset. After taking a 2/0 lead, the seventh seed was overcome 7-9 5-9
9-0 9-6 9-6 by French compatriot Floch Pascale - who goes on to meet
England's Dominique Lloyd-Walter after the top seed whitewashed France's
