PETALING JAYA: Men’s national No. 2 squash player Mohd Nafiizwan Adnan fought hard to make the main draw of the Hong Kong Open but there was only agony for women’s national No. 3 Delia Arnold once again.

The 27-year-old Nafiizwan, who had an easy first qualifying match on Sunday, had to come from behind twice to beat New Zealand’s Campbell Grayson 5-11, 11-8, 8-11, 11-8, 11-7 on Monday.
