KUALA LUMPUR, Sept 18 (Bernama) -- Malaysia’s interest in the Egyptian Open 2025 came to an end after their sole hope, S. Sivasangari crashed out at the quarter-finals in Giza, Wednesday.
The Professional Squash Association (PSA) Tour Diamond level tournament saw seventh seed Sivasangari once again find home player and fourth seed Amina Orfi a tough nut to crack as the Malaysian went down 6-11, 8-11, 11-4, 9-11.
The loss marks Sivasangari’s sixth defeat in seven encounters against Amina, since both players first crossed swords at the Squash On Fire Open 2023 in Washington, D.C.
Amina will next take on compatriot Fayrouz Aboelkheir in the semi-finals later today.
Fayrouz pulled off one of the tournament’s major upsets by seeing off defending champion and fellow Egyptian Nour El Sherbini, 11-8, 8-11, 9-11, 11-8, 11-5.
