21-Oct,
Semis:
Top seeds through to U.S. Open repeat in Surrey
Top seeds Mohamed Elshorbagy and Ali Farag set
up a repeat of their recent U.S. Open final with contrasting
wins over surprise semi-finalists Saurav Ghosal and Diego Elias
- both of whom are still looking to reach their first $100k
final.
Elshorbagy
won in straight games, but was never available to dominate as in
his previous matches as Ghosal stayed in touch throughout.
Farag looked to be continuing his run of comfortable wins as he
went two-nil up, but, urged on by the capacity crowd, fought
back to set up a deciding game before the Egyptian reasserted to
reach a fifth successive PSA final.
