Davies Run Continues In South Australia, Hedrick & Corren To Meet Again
from Squash365
June 16, 2012 - Semi-finals of the $5k South Australian Open in Adelaide saw seventh seed Samantha Davies pull off a second successive upset as she beat fourth seeded Tamika Saxby in straight games, setting up another trans-Tasman clash in the final, this time with top seed Amanda Landers-Murphy who beat fellow Kiwi Megan Craig, also in straight games.
The men's final will be a repeat of last week's all-Aussie Barossa Valley climax between Rex Hedrick and Mike Corren, which native South Australian Corren won to collect his fourth PSA title in a row. In the semi-finals both beat English opposition, Hedrick beating Tom Pashley in three, Corren recovering from dropping the first game to defeat Lewis Walters in four.
