Clyne wins Wimbledon squash title


PETALING JAYA: Scotland’s Alan Clyne (pic) clinched his second title of the season at the Wimbledon Club Squash Squared Open.

World No. 32 Clyne, who had earlier stunned top seed Saurav Ghosal of India in the semi-finals, claimed another scalp by beating third seed Tom Richards of England 11-3, 11-9, 11-6 in the final in London on Friday.

“I’m really chuffed that I managed to impose my game even though the second set was nip and tuck,” said Clyne, the winner of the Edinburgh Open in January.

“I think overall I played well. It was one of my best and I was pretty sharp on court.”
