Coline Clinches Creteil Crown by Howard Harding November 16, 2014
- Second seed Coline Aumard fully exploited home club advantage when
she upset favourite Lucie Fialova in the final of the inaugural WSA du
Comite du Val de Marne to win the WSA Tour 5 squash title at Centre
Sportif Marie-Thérèse Eyquem in Creteil, France.
The Paris-born 25-year-old (pictured above with Fialova) reached the
final - her ninth on the WSA Tour - after despatching Toulouse-based
third seed Laura Pomportes in straight games in a 25-minute semi-final.
Fialova, the world No43 from the Czech Republic, needed almost twice as
long to overcome fourth-seeded French opponent Cyrielle Peltier in four
games in the other semi. The win also notched up Fialova's ninth Tour
final appearance.
But Aumard, now ranked three places higher than her opponent, was in
commanding form in the final as she saw off Fialova 11-5, 11-5, 11-7 in
42 minutes to claim her second Tour victory over the 26-year-old from
Prague in just under a year.
The triumph gives Creteil-based Aumard the fifth WSA Tour title of her career - but her third in just two months.
RESULTS: WSA du Comite du Val de Marne, Creteil, France
