2015 British Open Squash

2015 British Open for Woman Squash will be best remembered for its semifinals... As one where a qualifier player had a blistering run into the semifinals.... Unannounced, after 2 rounds of tough qualifying matches, came the unexpected.. World no.29 Delia Arnold from Malaysia, she came, she saw and she conquered.. Shoving aside higher ranked players without breaking her strides, form or look..... Delia delivered, defied all predictions and topsy turvied the formbook... Greatest of all her feats was when she went into court and stood toe to toe... Against Raneem El Weleily, the sublime Egyptian player who was world number 2.. When the chips were down, Delia Arnold came alive, presevered and survived... Against all odds, spectators were awed as the world no.29 stayed alive.. Delia Arnold world no.29 tenaciously outfought the sublime skills of Raneem.. Quicksilver speed, silky skills and immaculate courtcraft failed to save Raneem... Next in her cross-sights was Carmille Serme of France, the world number 6... Being world no.29, can Delia go one further and take out the world no.6.... Ardent squash enthusiasts held their breath when on the next day they fight... Will the fairy tale run of Delia again run true after 4 days of dogged fights.. If you would like to know the outcome of how Delia perform the next day... You'll have to check out yourself on the internet for the outcome of that fray.. .
