PETALING JAYA: A string of unlucky draws has hampered national squash player Rachel Arnold (pic) from making progress in her recent outings, but her game has been staying consistent.

The world No. 22 saw her campaign at the Platinum-level Tournament of Champions end early after she fell 12-14, 1-11, 10-12 to world No. 9 Tinne Gilis of Belgium yesterday at the Grand Central Stadium in New York City.
