Semis Roundup

England Squash Report

Day four of the 2018 Dunlop British Junior Open saw two Englishmen reach a final for the first time in 16 years, after Sam Todd and Jonah Bryant ensured they were the only English representatives left to make the finals.  

England’s Todd [1] overpowered Ahmed Marzouk (Egy) [5/8] 3-1 to set up a last-two encounter in the B15 with India’s Neel Joshi [3/4], who held his nerve to overcome Malaysia’s Muhammad Amir Amirul Azhar [2] 3-2.

Bryant [2] survived a valiant comeback from Egypt’s Kareem Badawi [3/4] where he will face another Egyptian in the form of top seed Islam Kouratam [1].

It means an English duo have reached the finals for the first time since James Willstrop and Peter Barker achieved the feat in 2002, when they both contested the B19 final.

Commenting on playing his part in history, Bryant said: "It was tough going to five after being two-nil up, but I managed to get it back. He’s [Kareem] really good, I had to keep him at the back or I would have lost. I’m really happy to be in the final – I’m buzzing to be honest!”

All in all, Sunday will see 10 Egyptian players take to the glass court in a bid for BJO glory, with representation from the North African country in all but two of the categories – the G17 and the G19 – while the G11, B11 and B17 categories comprise of all-Egyptian duels.

Sunday’s last round will also feature an exciting sister-act as Aira and Aifa Azman both triumphed – with [5/8] seed Aira ousting England’s Katie Maliff [3/4] in a five-game B15 thriller, as she triumphed over a higher-seeded player than herself for a second consecutive day.

Speaking after her victory, Azman said: “It was hard, I was 2-1 down and then levelled but in the last game I was 8-10 down but I kept trying to remain positive and managed to turn it around. It's great to reach the final!"

Sana Ibrahim [2] awaits Azman in the final, who ousted Habeba El Dafrawy [3/4] 3-0.

There was further British heartache in the G19 as England’s Elise Lazarus [5/8] bowed out against Malaysia’s Sivasangari Subramaniam [1], who marched through to the final where she will face Japan’s Satomi Watanabe [2]. The Japanese player reached her first BJO final after dispatching England’s Lucy Turmel [3/4] in a 3-1 victory to end the British National Junior champion’s hopes.

Meanwhile, the G17, B19, B17 and B13 finals will all be contested by the top two seeds in each category.

In the G17, Aifa Azman (Mas) [2] kept the possibility of a double family BJO celebration as she overpowered Egypt’s Jana Shiha [3/4]. She will be met in the final by high-flying Marina Stefanoni [1], who caused further British upset as she ended Georgia Adderley’s (Sco) promising run in the tournament with a straight-game victory.

It took top B19 seed Marwan Tarek (Egy) just 31 minutes as he recorded a comprehensive 3-0 victory over compatriot Mostafe El Serty [3/4] to keep his hopes of a second BJO title in a row alive.

Standing in his way will be France’s Victor Crouin [2], who eased past Mexico’s Leonel Cardenas [5/8] 3-0 in what will be a repeat of last year’s World Junior

The B17 will be a battle between the impressive Omar El Torkey [1] and Mostafa Asal [2].

But it is a rather different story in the G13 category, which will see two [3/4] seeds lock horns as Fayrouz Abouelkheir toppled her Egyptian counterpart Lojayn Gohary [1], coming from a game down to claim a 3-1 victory. Malaysia’s Sehveetrrra Kuma also stunned second seed Malak Taha (Egy) in straight games to ensure the G13 is the only category where neither of the top two seeds feature.

Meanwhile, the BJO’s first ever B11 and G11 finals will consist of all-Egyptian showdowns. In the boys’ category, Ahmed Rashed [1] was made to work by Christian Capella (USA) [5/8], as the Egyptian was forced to battle from two games down to win 3-2, while Mohamed Zakaria [5/8] overcame physical battle with Malaysia’s Nickhileswar Moganasundharam [3/4].

And the G11 proceedings went according to seed as the group’s top two seeds also advanced. No.1 Egyptian seed Amina Orfi kept up her pristine 3-0 record in the tournament as she overcame Malaysia’s Whitney Wilson [3/4] in straight sets to face compatriot Janna Galal [2].

Quarter-Finals Roundup

Azmans galvanize Malaysian spirit to secure semi-final showdowns

England Squash report

Aira Azman [5/8] inspired a series of strong Malaysian showings as she ousted top G15 seed Nour Khaled Aboulmakarim to book her place in the semi-finals on day three of the 2018 Dunlop British Junior Open (BJO).

Azman, the 2017 Asian Junior U13 winner, fought back heroically from a game down to secure a 3-1 victory, winning 5-11, 11-0, 11-7, 11-8 and seal a semi-final spot, where she will meet England’s Katie Maliff [3/4].

It means the G15 category is the only group where the No.1 seed does not feature in the last four.

The quarter-final day also saw five British players seal semi-final spots, while Malaysia also celebrated the same number who remain in contention to reach Sunday’s final.

There was double family joy as Azman’s older sister Aifa also progressed in the G17, where the second seed will face Jana Shila (Egy) [3/4]. Elsewhere in the group, current British National Junior U17 champion Georgia Adderley (Sco) [3/4] earned a 3-1 triumph over China’s Chan Sin Yuk [5/8] and awaits what promises to be an exciting showdown with top seed Marina Stefanoni (USA).

Egyptians continued to dominate the B19, where British National U19 champion Tom Walsh [5/8] came up short against Mostafa El Serty [3/4] in his quarter-final five-game thriller. 

El Serty will face a tough task in last year’s champion Marwan Tarek [1], who looks in pole position to defend his crown – having yet to drop a game in the tournament.  Victor Crouin is the only male French player to feature in a BJO semi-final, where he faces [5/8] Leonel Cardenas, the current US Junior Open U19 champion.

The G19 is the only category where an Egyptian player does not feature – and home fans will have much to cheer about after English duo Elise Lazarus [5/8] and Lucy Turmel [3/4] advanced to the last four. 

British National U19 champion Turmel faces an in-form Satomi Watanabe (Jpn) [2] who ensured there would be no hat-trick of English women by overpowering Jasmine Hutton [5/8] in straight games, while Lazarus will face No.1 seed Sivasangari Subramaniam.

Tushar Shahani (Ind) [9/16] remains the lowest-ranked seed to reach a BJO 2018 semi-final, where he will face high-flying Omar El Torkey [1] who has set to drop a game in the B17, while El Torkey’s compatriots Yehia Hesham Fathy Elnawasany [5/8] and Mostafa Asal [2] will do battle for a final spot.

Double US Junior Open champion Sam Todd (Eng) cruised through to the B15 last four and confirmed his status as favourite to win the group. The Englishman will meet Egypt’s Ahmed Marzouk in the last four, after the [3/4] seed halted India’s Arnaav Sareen’s [17/32] fairy tale run in the tournament with a feisty 3-1 victory.

Meanwhile, the other G15 semi-final promises to be a hotly-contested all-Egyptian affair, as Habeba el Dafrawy [3/4] takes on Sana Ibrahim [2].

In the G13, Loyjayn Gohary [1] overcame her Egyptian counterpart Alya Omar [5/8] to set up another compatriot encounter with Fayrouz Abouelkheir [3/4], while Malak Taha (Egy) [2] set up a clash with Malaysian Sehveetrraa Kumar [3/4].

Pakistan’s Muhammad Humza Khan [5/8] produced a mesmerising performance in the B13, battling all the way to claim an epic five-game thriller against Omar Azzam [3/4] as he ousted the Egyptian 8-11,11-9, 11-9, 2-11, 11-8 to seal a last four spot against top seed Islam Kouratam.

And Jonah Bryant [2] ensured there will be an English representative elsewhere in the group, with Kareem Badawi (Egy) [3/4] standing in his way of reaching the final.

Ahmed Rashed [1] sailed through to the last four in the B11, where he will face England’s Dylan Roberts [5/8], while the USA’s Christian Capella [5/8], will play Malaysia’s Lee Hong Wong [3/4].

France’s Lauren Baltayan [5/8] is the only European representative left in the G11, after overcoming Charlie McCrone [3/4] to advance to the semi-final stage. She will play second seed Janna Galal (Egy).

Elsewhere in the G11, top Egyptian seed Amina Orfi kept up her pristine 3-0 record so far in the competition and will face Malaysia’s Whitney Wilson [3/4] for a place in Sunday’s final.
