Aamir Wins Fourth COAS International Crown
by Howard Harding
22 April 2012 - Top seed Aamir Atlas Khan defeated defending champion Nasir Iqbal in today's final of the COAS International in Pakistan to win the PSA World Tour Challenger 10 squash title at the Mushaf Squash Complex in Islamabad for the fourth time.
Iqbal, the 18-year-old world No140 from Peshawar, had carried on where he left off last year - upsetting seeds in both the quarter and semi-finals to reach the final against expectation for the second year in a row.
But Atlas Khan, the 21-year-old world No32 and highest-ranked player in Pakistan, was too strong for the teenager - winning 11-7, 11-8, 11-8 in 42 minutes to repeat his title triumphs of 2008, 2009 and 2010.
The success marks the seventh PSA World Tour title of Khan's career.
