Zac Alexander Arises to Take Queensland Open Title by Sean Reuthe November 9, 2015
- Top seed Zac Alexander secured his third successive PSA World Tour
title with a straight games victory over Joshua Larkin in the final of
the Queensland Open, PSA M5 event.
Alexander overcame fellow Australian Rhys Dowling in the pair’s
semi-final encounter while Larkin swept past Adam Murrills to reach the
final and set up a repeat of the previous week’s Mackay Open final in
which Alexander triumphed.
The World No.91 was in effervescent form throughout the encounter and
started brilliantly, opening up the court with a number of deep drives
to go two games ahead.
Larkin imposed himself on the match more in the third and pushed
Alexander all the way but there was no stopping the Brisbane-born
26-year-old from recording an 11-7, 11-5, 11-9 triumph to ensure a
third PSA World Tour title on the bounce, the second time he has
achieved such a feat in his career.
The victory over Larkin brings about Alexander’s 17th PSA World Tour crown and extends his unbeaten run to 15 matches.
