Stoehr & Briggs To Contest Sannois Final

England's third seed Lauren Briggs and French favourite Isabelle Stoehr will contest the final of the Women's Sannois International after prevailing in contrasting semi-finals in the inaugural $20,000 WISPA World Tour squash event at OS Sannois in Sannois, France.

Stoehr, the world No15 from Montpellier, defeated Dane Line Hansen, the fourth seed, 9-0, 9-7, 9-4 in 42 minutes to reach the 15th Tour final of her career.

The recently-crowned European champion is also looking for her second WISPA title on home soil this year.

It took Briggs 63 minutes to reserve her surprise place in the Sannois final. The 28-year-old from London recovered from two games down to upset second-seeded Dutch opponent Annelize Naude to win 5-9, 2-9, 9-3, 9-4, 9-7.

Briggs, who is celebrating her seventh Tour final appearance, is also looking for her second win in France this year - after clinching the Carcassonne Open crown last month!
