MEAGAN BEST has once again emerged as the undisputed queen of the Barbados Squash Association’s Sagicor Junior National Squash Championships.

In what can only be described as an outstanding achievement at the Barbados Squash Club in Marine Gardens, Christ Church, last Sunday, Best proved why she currently holds the titles of both Caribbean and Canadian Open Junior Champion by earning the Under-15 Mixed and Under-19 Girls’ titles, and the was also highest placed girl in the round robin.

She dominated in both games against her arch-rival, Caribbean Under-17 champion and badminton player Amanda Haywood, and Jodi Smith-Padmore.

Despite Haywood’s initial fight in the first game of the match, and locking scores 12-12, she handed Best the game after Best was given a stroke to win 14-12. She later conceded defeat 14-12, 11-6, 11-4. (RA)
