MARGO GREEN BREAKS THROUGH

Canadian WISPA aspirant Margo Green scored an important career breakthrough in Finland this weekend. Green, ranked # 48 in the world and the fifth seed, upset Malaysian Sharon Wee (# 31) 9-3 9-2 3-9 9-4 in the final of the Savcor Women's Finnish Squash Open in Mikkeli, Finland. It was green's maiden WISPA World Tour title and her first finals appearance.
