Grant Grabs Lagos Title

9 Nov 2014

England's Adrian Grant picked up his 21st career PSA World Tour title after he saw off Egypt's Karim Ali Fathi in the final of the 2014 Lagos International Squash Classic, the PSA International 25 event taking place in Lagos, Nigeria.

After seeing off Pakistan's Farhan Zaman in the semi-final stage, top seed Grant continued his run of form to ease past number five seed Fathi, who earned his place in the final after an impressive 3/1 win over Omar Abdel Meguid.

Londoner Grant put in a dominant display to take the match and the trophy with an 11-9, 11-6, 11-2 victory and complete a week of action that saw him drop just one game en route to the title.

Victory ensures that the world No30 goes into the 2014 Qatar PSA World Championship, which begins this week in Doha, in fine form and he'll be aiming to capitalise on that when he begins his campaign against a qualifier on Friday November 14.
