Top Seeds Triumph In
KL
Event favourites Sharon Wee and Karim Abdel Gawad, from Malaysia and
Egypt, respectively, triumphed in contrasting styles in the NSC
Series No2 at the Bukit Jalil National Squash Centre in the
Malaysian capital Kuala Lumpur.
Sharon Wee recorded her first WISPA title success since
November 2007 with an impressive display in the women's event.
But her opponent in the final enjoyed one of her best ever
performances on the international squash circuit. Maria Toor Pakay,
a qualifier from Pakistan ranked 126 in the world, defeated a series
of seeds en-route to her second appearance in a Tour final.
The 19-year-old left-hander from Islamabad's biggest scalp was
second seed Song Sun-Mi, the world No46 from South Korea.
But 32-year-old Wee, ranked 34 in the world, was too strong for
Pakay, winning 13-11, 11-8, 11-1 in 33 minutes to claim the eighth
Tour title of her career.
There was also Pakistan disappointment in the final of the men's
event. But second seed Waqar Mehboob, the 18-year-old world No110
from Peshawar, stretched favourite Karim Abdel Gawad to five games
before the Egyptian, also 18, prevailed 11-9, 11-1, 10-12, 5-11,
11-5 in 67 minutes.
The win marks Cairo-based Gawad's fifth PSA Tour title success in
seven final appearances. |
