Frenchman Baptiste Bouin took squash open

The Gibraltar Squash Association hosted the latest PSA Squash Open, with sixteen players — some highly ranked across the European game — converging on the Rock.

The three-day event saw Ivan Flores and Declan Christie perform well.

Declan secured a 3–0 victory against Barnabad Sali from Italy in his opening match. He later faced Hugo Jaen from Spain, losing 3–1, before taking on Kike Garcia Rosales, whom he defeated 3–1. He then played Javier Martin in the 5–8 play-offs, where he lost 3–1.

Ivan Flores suffered a 3–0 defeat to Gabriel Cox before being involved in a close encounter against Javier Martin, losing narrowly 3–2. Flores Vela then faced a second tight contest against Kike Garcia Rosales, again losing 3–2 in another exciting match.

Frenchman Baptiste Bouin emerged as the overall winner, beating Spain’s Hugo Jaen 3–0 in the final.
