[Pakistan
Open Draw] [Qualifier
Entrants]
HIGH LOCAL INTEREST
Squash continues to be of prime National
pride and interest to Pakistanis everywhere. Nowhere was this more apparent
than in the intense interest focused on the resurgant Pakistani Open,
now in 2002 a world-class event.
16 PLAY DOWN FOR 8
SPOTS
With so many local players aspiring to the PSA ranks, a prequalifier was
held to give sixteen local players the opportunity to join 24 PSA regulars
in a strong qualifying event, which begins today
The main surprise of
the prequalifier was the early ouster of leading Pakistani junior player,
Khalid Atlas who ran into non-stop determination from Asghar Khan.
