CCI Western India Squash Tournament: Top seeds Joshna Chinappa and Veer Chotrani emerged champions in the women’s and men’s categories respectively, clinching their titles in contrasting fashion at the final of the 80th CCI Western India Squash Tournament at the historic Cricket Club of India (CCI) courts on Sunday.
In the women’s final, the 39-year-old Chinappa lived up to her top billing with a spirited come-from-behind victory over second-seed Sanya Vats. After dropping the opening game, the seasoned campaigner raised her intensity and control to outlast Vats 7-11, 11-8, 11-8, 11-5 in a commanding performance that underlined her experience on the big stage.
“I have been playing here at the CCI since I was 12 years old and have trained here regularly. Hence, winning here at the CCI is very special. I feel very proud of winning the title,” said Chinappa after winning the title for the fifth time. The last time she won the crown was in 2007-08.
