Squash
CHENNAI: Seeded 11th in the team event, India finished ninth in the World junior women’s squash championship being held in Hong Kong. After missing by a whisker to qualify for the quarterfinal phase, India fought for the 9 to16 places. The young team, funded entirely by SRFI, did well to get past Korea 3-0, Germany 3-0 and finally South Africa 2-0 to take the ninth slot. Anwesha Reddy set the tone in the crucial tie against South Africa with a hard fought 3-2 win over Lizane Vlok. Anwesha slipped momentarily to allow the South African to catch up. Anwesha, however, made no mistake in the deciding game to ensure a 9-1, 9-2, 9-10, 4-9, 9-2 win in 41 minutes. Dipika, then, defeated Milnay Louw 9-3, 9-7, 9-2 to clinch the issue. Surbhi Mishra thus was not required to take the court.
