FARHAN MEHBOOB BACK ON TRACK
An all-Peshawar battle brought the 2011 CAS International to a close
today when top seed Farhan Mehboob held off the challenge of
fourth seed Mansoor Zaman to win the long-established PSA
World Tour Challenger 10 squash title at the Mushaf Squash Complex
in the Pakistan capital Islamabad.
Both players were stretched in the semi-finals - Pakistan No2
Mehboob needing 53 minutes to see off third-seeded compatriot Yasir
Butt in four games, and the country's experienced former number one
Zaman being extended to five games by Farhan's unseeded older
brother Waqar Mehboob before prevailing in 64 minutes.
But 22-year-old favourite Farhan was in command throughout the
final, beating his 31-year-old opponent 11-5, 11-4, 11-8 in just 35
minutes to extend his winning Tour run over Zaman to seven matches
since 2007.
While Zaman won the Chief of Air Staff International title back in
2001, and has made the final a further four times since then, it was
Mehboob's maiden CAS title success.
The triumph marks the fourth PSA World Tour title triumph of
Mehboob's career.
Air Chief Marshall Rao Qamar Suleman, Chief of the Air Staff,
who is also the President of the Pakistan Squash Federation, was the
Chief Guest at the final and awarded prizes and trophies to the
players.

Pakistanis Farhan Mehboob and Waqar Mehboob have reached the
semi-finals of the long-established CAS International on home soil -
but the two brothers survived totally contrasting quarter-finals at
the Mushaf Squash Complex in Islamabad.
Favourite Farhan, from Peshawar, brushed aside Lahore-based Muhammad
Shah Nawaz 11-8, 11-3, 11-5 in just 30 minutes.
But unseeded younger brother Waqar was facing the No2 seed Danish
Atlas Khan, also from Peshawar. Kahn, aged 17, won the opening two
games and took the third game to extra points.
Waqar, two years older but more than 30 places lower in the world

on to take the decider to win the marathon match 6-11, 8-11, 13-11,
12-10, 11-8 in one minute less than two hours.
Waqar takes on experienced fourth seed Mansoor Zaman, while
22-year-old Farhan faces third seed Yasir Butt.
