Hong Kong's Leo Au scored his second PSA World Tour title success in Australia this month when he upset favourite Bradley Hindle in the final of the Tasmanian Open in Hobart, Tasmania.

It was after dropping his first game of the tournament in the semi-finals against England's No3 seed Lewis Walters that Au faced Hindle, the top seed from Malta, in the final of the PSA Challenger 5 squash event at Eastside Squash.

The 21-year-old from Hong Kong came from behind in the first two games to overcome Australian-born Hindle 11-6, 11-8, 11-3 in 34 minutes.

"I should have won the first two games and then in the third he got away from me, I think I was a bit deflated," Hindle said.

"But I'm not too disappointed. It was a good match - he was just a bit better than me on the day."

The title marks Au's third on the PSA Tour, and immediately follws his success in the Victorian Open in Melbourne.
