Gough Denies Grant Triple Tenerife Triumph

Top-seeded Welshman Alex Gough denied second seed Adrian Grant his third PSA Tour title in Tenerife when he beat the Englishman in a five-game thriller in the final of the Prince Canary Islands Open Squash Championship.

Grant, from Halifax in Yorkshire, forged a 2/1 lead - but the tenacious Welshman regained control of the match to draw level.

Gough, the Newport-born world No20 from Crowthorne in Berkshire, maintained his focus to secure a 15-11 13-15 6-15 15-7 15-12 triumph and claim his first PSA title for almost three years.
