Ong Beng Hee made it a grand double for Malaysia by taking the men’s title.
Nicol exacted sweet revenge over Duncalf in her 11-6, 11-4, 11-6 win at the Indian Squash Academy yesterday. The English girl had beaten Nicol in the semi-final of the Carol Weymuller Open in US and the Qatar Classic last November.
There was no chance of Duncalf pulling off another win yesterday as Nicol was in devastating form and needed only 25 minutes to lift the title.
Beng Hee ended his lean title spell by downing Jonathan Kemp of England 14-12, 11-9, 11-9 in 47 minutes in the men’s final.
It was his first title since winning the Malaysian Open in 2008.
World No. 19 Beng Hee produced an error-free game and mixing the pace of his shots to trouble the second-seeded Kemp.
The win should serve as a big boost for Beng Hee, who now has the services of coach Jamshed Gul to further refine his game ahead of the CIMB KL Open from March 15-20 in Kuala Lumpur.
