PETALING JAYA: National squash ace S. Sivasangari is keeping her head up after falling short of a maiden Egyptian Open final, taking heart from a run that saw her reach the semi-finals of her first Diamond-level event.

Fresh from defending her Asian Games crown and securing Olympic qualification, the Malaysian pushed world No. 2 Hania El Hammamy to the limit before losing a gruelling five-game battle in Giza on Thursday.
