PETALING JAYA: Age is just a number as shown by the two champions – both in their thirties – at the British Open squash championships.

England’s 33-year-old Laura Massaro was the first to go into action at the Airco Arena in Hull on Sunday. And the world No. 5 beat 26-year-old compatriot Sarah-Jane Perry 11-8, 11-8, 6-11, 11-6 to lift her second British Open crown.
