Miller Flourishes In Flying Pig Open In Ohio
9 Nov 2009
Freed from the responsibility of also being the tournament organiser, Canada's Alana Miller swept to victory in the Women's Flying Pig Open, the $7,100 WISPA World Tour squash event in its maiden year at the Cincinnati Country Club in Cincinnati in the US state of Ohio.
It was only a week ago that the three-time Canadian National champion organised the Meadowood Pharmacy Open at her home club in Winnipeg, finishing in the last four.
But the refreshed 29-year-old world No46 reached eight places above her in the WISPA world rankings to beat top seed Lisa Camilleri in the Cincinnati final.
Second seed Miller defeated the Australian 11-7, 11-7, 7-11, 11-7 to clinch the second Tour title of her career, more than two years after celebrating her maiden success at the Royal Glenora Club Open on home soil in Edmonton.
Final:
[2] Alana Miller (CAN) bt [1] Lisa Camilleri (AUS) 11-7, 11-7, 7-11, 11-7
