New Zealander Kylie Lindsay and home hero Mike Corren – both the top seeds – prevailed to win the North Coast Squash Open titles at Coffs Harbour Squash Centre in Coffs Harbour in the Australian state of New South Wales.
Australian Mike Corren survived a four-game semi-final against fourth-seeded Kiwi Alex Grayson to reach the final of the $3,000 PSA World Tour satellite event – the 44th Tour final of his career.
But his opponent Nathan Stevenson, a fellow Australian who was the second seed, also needed four games to claim his place in the final - by contrast the fifth of his career.
The experienced Corren was too strong for 19-year-old Grayson in the final, however. The 36-year-old South Australian battled to a 12-10, 11-4, 11-6 victory in just 28 minutes to claim the 29th Tour title of his career.
In the final of the women’s $4,000 WISPA World Tour event, Kylie Lindsay denied the hosts a double – and Australian opponent Melody Francis her maiden Tour title – by beating the 21-year-old second seed 11-8, 11-7, 10-12, 13-11.
The triumph marks Lindsay’s second WISPA title of the year – and the third of her career.
