Czech Squash Junior Open 22.01 - 24.01 2010

Welcome to Czech Squash Junior Open page!

Czech players were very successful today in Prague. 5 out of 8 titles
remained at home including both most prestigious under 19 titles. Anna
Klimundova and Daniel Mekbib won the U19 category. Martin Svec and Denisa
Peleskova won in under 17s. The fifth title was won by Jan Ryba in boys
under 15. The girls under 15s were won by Sasha Cocks from Wales. Marija
Shpakova from Switzerland and Ruoshan Yau from England triumphed in
the youngest under 13 category.

Anna Klimundova was simply too good for his Austrian opponent Sandra
Polak in girls´ U19 final today. Anna dominated the rallies with hard
and accurate drives and won a bit surprisingly easily in quick three
games.

Boys´ under 19 final was much closer affair with old Czech rivals Roman
Svec and Daniel Mekbib battling for very close five games. Roman started
the fifth better. He got a good lead but Daniel did not give up. He
slowly clawed back to level with a fast pressure play that forced Roman
to move quickly to all four corners. At the end Daniel was simply more
focused and composed than Roman who suffered a bit physically as well.


All the spectators were pleased with a high level and entertaining match
to finish off the whole well run tournament.
