Sivasangari wins Open title in Hong Kong

KUALA LUMPUR, Nov 25 — National squash queen S. Sivasangari won The Hong Kong Football Club Open today for her second title this year.

Sivasangari had won the Tunku Mukhriz Cup championship in August.

"I am really happy, especially getting to beat a very talented player (Amina)," the Kedahan said in an audio clip shared by the Professional Squash Association on X.

Meanwhile, fellow national player Ng Eain Yow fell to Egypt’s Aly Abou Eleinen in the men’s final.
