PENANG: Squash player Zoe Foo was all smiles as she stepped off the court at the National Championships despite ending her campaign in the quarter-finals at the hands of top seed Aira Azman yesterday.

The 26-year-old Zoe, who had quit her corporate job in June to make the return to competitive squash, put on a valiant performance but was overpowered by Aira at the Nicol David International Squash Centre as she fell 12-14, 11-13, 11-6, 2-11.
