Delia leads local charge in World meet qualifiers


GEORGE TOWN: National No. 3 Delia Arnold leads a group of 20 Malaysian players who will go into action at the Nicol David International Squash Centre in Penang to vie for the eight qualifying berths available for the 29th World Women’s Squash Championship 2013 main draw.

World No. 37 Delia received a bye in the round of 64 on Saturday and will take on Egypt’s Habiba Mohamed on Sunday for a place in the third qualifying round. If she gets past Habiba, the 28-year-old Malaysian will likely meet Holland’s world No. 51 Milou van der Heijden to earn a spot in the main draw’s first round.
