 Rebecca
Retains
Crocodile Challenge Cup
Hong Kong's Rebecca Chiu, retained the Crocodile Challenge Cup with
a four-game victory over Australia's Melissa Martin in the final at the
Hong Kong Squash Centre.
Chiu, who defeated top seed Shelley Kitchen in the semi-finals, had too
much firepower for Martin, who had beaten second seeded Annelize Naude in
the quarters, as the world number 18 went on to claim her sixth WISPA
title.
It was not to be a Hong Kong double though, as Pakistan's top seeded
Shamsul Islam Khan recovered from losing the first game against Hong
Kong number one Wai Wang Hong, taking the next three to claim his second
career PSA title.

Chiu
charges into Crocodile final
Hong Kong's Rebecca Chiu, the defending champion, scored an upset
win over New Zealand's top seed Shelley Kitchen to keep alive her hopes of
retaining the title. In a repeat of the 2005 final, Chiu fought back
from 2-1 down to reach the final, where she meets Australia's Melissa
Martin, who followed up her quarter-final win over second seed
Annelize Naude with a five-game semi-final win over Malaysia's Sharon Wee.
A home double is still o the cards, with Hong Kong's Wai Wang Hong
overcoming compatriot Timothy Arnold to reach the final, where he meets
top-seeded Shamsul Islam Khan.

Women's Qualifying results
Park in HK Marathon
While the men's qualifying for the 2006 Crocodile Cup is spread over two
days, the women are playing both rounds today ... which is bad news for
Korea's Eun Ok Park, who survived a marathon five-game 109-minute
tussle to oust qualifying top seed Dianne Desira 9-7, 5-9, 9-5, 3-9, 10-8.
She then faced Joshna Chinappa for a place in the main draw and not
surprisingly went down in straight games.
