Malaysian double in KL
Malaysia celebrated an unexpected home double when Nafiizwan Adnan
and Delia Arnold claimed the trophies in the NSC Series #7 events at
the Bukit Jalil National Squash Centre in Kuala Lumpur.
Adnan, the third seed, made his breakthrough in the semi-finals when
he upset Pakistan's No2 seed Yasir Butt.
In the final, the KL-based 23-year-old faced compatriot Ivan Yuen,
the eighth seed who ousted Czech favourite Jan Koukal in the
quarter-finals. Yuen, the 18-year-old Asian Junior champion,
continued his good form to down higher-seeded Pakistani Arshad Iqbal
Burki in the semis.
It took the more experienced Adnan almost an hour - but the third
seed ultimately secured the fifth successive win over his younger
fellow countryman to claim the fifth PSA title of his career in an
11-7, 11-7, 4-11, 11-7 scoreline.
By contrast, the climax of the women's went according to seedings -
with favourite Delia Arnold beating second-seeded fellow Malaysian
Sharon Wee 11-5, 11-3, 11-7.
The title triumph is 23-year-old Arnold's fifth WISPA title.
