THE FLYING WELSH
Julian Illingworth, the sole US entrant in the main draw of
the Betty F Griffin Memorial Florida State Open, produced the
perfect home result by winning the PSA $10k event at the Lifetime Athletic Club in Boca Raton, USA.
The top-seeded 28-year-old from New York reached the 19th Tour final
of his career when he beat unseeded South African Clinton Leeuw
in the semi-finals.
In the other semi, fourth-seeded Welshman Peter Creed denied
2010 champion Alfredo Avila a second appearance in the final after
coming through a 61-minute five-game marathon against the
21-year-old Mexican.
The final was one of the longest matches of the championship, but
record eight-time US champion Illingworth edged through to beat
Welsh champion Creed - making his fourth final of the year -
11-3, 9-11, 11-9, 11-6 in 70 minutes.
The triumph marks the ninth PSA title of Illingworth's career - but
his fourth this year.
