PETALING JAYA: Delia Arnold is the new national No. 2 woman squash player. But her world ranking has taken a tumble – she’s down two spots to No. 14.

With the 25-year-old Low Wee Wern, who is still recovering from an anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury, dropping seven spots to No. 16 in the world, Delia is now the second-ranked Malaysian after Nicol David, who stays as world No. 2.
