Zurich: India’s Abhay Singh stunned Egyptian world No. 13 Aly Abou Eleinen to enter his maiden PSA Gold-level event quarterfinals at the Grasshopper Cup squash. The World No.24 trailed 8-5 in the opener before pegging the score back to 8-8 and saved both of Eleinen’s game balls before converting in the tiebreak. Singh, who defeated Eleinen 3-2 at the El Gouna International earlier this month, had to withstand an Eleinen comeback in the second when the Egyptian was 7-3 down before levelling, but the strength of Singh’s backhand helped him win 12-10, 11-9. He will next take on Egyptian world No 4 Karim Gawad for a place in the semifinals. IANS
