Habiba Wins Paderborn Prize
An upset brought the first Tour event to be staged in Germany for more than four years to a climax when Egyptian teenager Habiba Mohamed crushed England's top seed Lisa Aitken in the final of the Paderborn Open.
The Women's Squash Association World Tour 5 event attracted players from 13 nations to compete at Ahorn-Squashin Paderborn - home of Paderborner Squash Club, record 10-time winners of the Bundesliga Squash title, and the venue which hosted the Men's World Team Championship in 2011.
The German crowd witnessed the latest episode in the remarkable career of 15-year-old Alymohmed who, less than a year ago, became the youngest ever winner of a WSA Tour event when aged just 14 years and 5 months!
Now in her third final, the young Alexandria star clinched her third title after despatching 24-year-old Aitken 11-5, 11-6, 11-6 in just 21 minutes.
