KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 15 (Bernama) -- Malaysia’s squash ace S. Sivasangari is one step away from glory at the Silicon Valley Open in Redwood City, United States after powering into the final today (Malaysian time).
The world No. 8 and third seed was in good form, sweeping aside Egypt’s seventh seed Salma Hany 3-0 in just 22 minutes in the semi-finals.
Sivasangari displayed her trademark precision and composure throughout the match by sealing the victory 11-3, 11-9, 11-5 to earn a well-deserved spot in the title decider.
Standing between her and the championship is top seed Olivia Weaver of the United States, a familiar rival who has triumphed in seven of their eight previous encounters.
Earlier, Weaver advanced to the final after defeating England’s Georgina Kennedy 3-0 (11-5, 11-3, 11-4) in the other semi-final.
