KUALA LUMPUR: Malaysia’s Nicol David qualified for the semi-finals of the Kuala Lumpur Open squash championships with a calculated win over Madeline Perry of Ireland but teammate Sharon Wee made a quick exit at the National Squash Centre in Bukit Jalil yesterday.
Nicol, the second seed, took 36 minutes to beat Perry 9-4, 3-9, 9-3, 9-0. Nicol will now take on unseeded Tegwen Malik of Wales in the semi-finals. The other semi-final will see top seed Venessa Atkinson of Holland playing Egypt’s Omneya Abdel Kawy.
