Final:
Wagih takes
Wisconsin title
Andrew Wagih beat Jaymie Haycocks
11-8, 11-7, 11-5 in a match between the top two seeds in the final
of the Madison Open in Wisconsin, Usa, reports Damon Bourne
...
Very good final today. Tight first game with some long points. After
going down 5-1 in the first, Jaymie did his best to contain Andrew,
but the poor start cost him. He got to 8-10, but couldn't get any
closer.
Better start the second game and it was even 5 all, and 6 all. A few
solid points by Wagih, and some errors off Jaymie's racquet cost the
Englishman the second.
Jaymie went up 5-1 in the third, but Andrew stepped it up a gear and
ran the table from 2-5 down until the end.

Quarter-Finals:
Quarters in Wisconsin
Three of the four seeds will
contest the semi-finals of the Madison Open in Wisconsin, joined by
Welshman Peter Creed.
Creed looked very strong as he followed up yesterday's win over
fourth seed Dane Sharp with a straight games win over Adrian
Dudzicki, and he now faces top seed Andrew Wagih,
ended the hopes of the last
remaining qualifier David Letourneau.
Danish Atlas Khan prevailed 3/1 in a 'messy match' with Scott
Arnold, and in the all-English quarter-final Anthony Graham
took the first before second seed Jaymie Haycocks built up
the pressure and took the match in four .

Round One:
Round One in Wisconsin
Damon Bourne reports
Adrian Dudzicki bt Jamie Macaulay
11-5, 11-9, 11-8
Solid play from the Canadian contained Macaulay from the outset. Two
hard qualifying rounds may have had something to do with it. Adrian
was solid though.
 Peter
Creed bt Dane Sharp 11-6, 22-20, 11-0
Kind of a weird one here. Good first game with some good tight
squash with Creed taking it. Nearly a 40 minute second. Creed
thought he won it at 12-11, but a suspect ball was called good and
the ref stood by his decision so on it went.
Each player had numerous game balls. Creed saved a game ball with a
full layout to the front right, followed by a quick trip to the
back. Finally won it at 22-20. I stepped away for a minute and the
third was over in a few minutes as Sharp phoned [Folded? Ed] in the
third.
BLOG: Self-Explanatory Scorelines
Scott Arnold bt Mark Heather
5-11, 12-10, 11-8, 11-13, 11-7
Mr. Heather looked very dangerous as this one started as he dictated
the first game and most of the second. The wheels started coming off
after 5 game balls in the second and losing. Scott started to take
more and more control and got Mark in to his customary, but
dangerous, 2-1 down position. Scott held match ball in the 4th, got
complacent, and let Mark back in. With some solid play, Scott took
advantage of a clearly tiring Englishman and came through looking
comfortable.
Danish Atlas Khan bt Tyler Hamilton
11-6, 11-1, 11-5
Danish looked very solid in this match. His movement is quite good,
and his shot choice seemed to handcuff the Canadian.
 Jaymie
Haycocks bt Fernando Lopez
11-5, 11-6, 11-5
Solid match by Haycocks. I spoke with Lopez a little afterwords and
he had this to say about Jaymie: "@#$%$% drop shots!"
Dave Letourneau bt Thomas Brinkman
12-10, 11-7, 7-11, 11-9
Didn't see much of this, but saw that Letourneau had 7 match balls
in the 4th before finally winning 11-9. Lot of respect for his
opponent--"Thomas never, ever gives up."
 Andrew
Wagih bt Lyall Paterson
11-3, 11-2, 11-9
Um, wow. Short match. All attacking, very angular stuff. Neither was
interested much ralleying. Anything the slightest bit loose was
heading into the nick or the tin.
Anthony Graham bt Sam Burton
11-5, 11-4, 11-9
Anthony looks to be in fine form and won this quickly, limiting his
time on court to 22 minutes, give or take.

Qualifying Finals:
Qualifying complete in Wisconsin
"Very entertaining matches tonight," reports Damon Bourne on
the qualifying finals of the Madison Open in Wisconsin, Usa.
Dave Letourneau bt Khaled Ghoniem 11-3, 11-2, 11-5
Dave did not let Khaled get in front of him knowing that Khaled's
shot making was going to be a problem to deal with from behind.
Jamie Macaulay bt Shahjahan Khan 9-11, 11-7, 11-4, 11-6
Jamie was surprised in the first at how fast this 16 year old was
and how hard he could hit the ball. The Scot made some un-called-for
errors as a result and lost a tight first game. Jamie used
experience and patience to wear down Shah and took it in four.
Mark Heather bt Robert Downer 6-11, 11-8, 8-11, 11-6, 11-8
Highly entertaining match with the greying veteran eking out another
5 gamer.
Lyall Paterson bt Aurangzeb Mehmund 11-6,7-11,11-8,3-11,11-8
Tense. Very tense. LP wins in five ridiculous games played, for the
most part, in front of the service line. No back wall necessary.
Excellent retrieving by both players. Mehmund hits hard and went toe
to toe with the Scot right up until the end.
Paterson plays Wagih, Letourneau plays Brinkman, Macaulay plays
Dudzicki, Heather plays Arnold.
