Rachel wins junior meet after world championship heartbreak

KUALA LUMPUR: National junior Rachel Arnold made amends for missing out on a chance to compete in the Women World Junior Squash Championship at Harvard University, Boston from July 20-30, by winning the Under-19 title in the National Junior Circuit Grand Finals at the National Squash Centre, Bukit Jalil yesterday.

Rachel, the younger sister of national No. 3 Delia Arnold, was initially set to compete in the World Juniors but the Squash Racquets Association Malaysia (SRAM) could only afford to send four players.
