Squash: Anahat Singh beats world No.10 Georgina Kennedy

Teenage star and seventh seed Anahat Singh beat top seed and world No. 10 Georgina Kennedy of England 12-10, 11-5, 11-7 in the Squash on Fire Open final in Washington for her maiden PSA Bronze-level crown.

It is the biggest title of young Anahat’s career, and the 15th overall on the PSA Tour for the Indian world No. 31 in 26 tournaments.

Anahat had lost to Georgina in their only previous meeting, but the Delhi girl reeled off four straight points to close out the opening game after trailing 8-10 and pretty much took control of the match.

“I’m extremely happy. I knew I wanted to do well in these events, get my ranking up and also put on a performance, and I’m glad I was able to do that this time,” she said.
