Exactly seven years after first becoming a member of the Professional Squash Association, Pakistan's Majid Khan is celebrating his maiden appearance in a PSA Tour event final after upsetting England's Scott Handley in the semi-finals of the Anscombe & Ringland London Open at the Cumberland Club in London.
The 23-year-old qualifier from Peshawar fought back from two games down to beat Handley - the third seed from Oxfordshire who defeated Pakistan squash legend Jansher Khan in his comeback appearance in the first round - 8-11, 10-11 (2-4), 11-3, 11-5, 11-4.
Kahn now faces unseeded Englishman Alex Stait, the Manchester-based 27-year-old from Gloucestershire who recovered from a game behind to beat South African Jesse Engelbrecht 7-11, 11-3, 11-3, 11-10 (3-1) to reach his eighth PSA final.
The women's WISPA World Tour event also produced a remarkable upset when France's unseeded Camille Serme recovered from losing two whitewash games to beat England's No2 seed Rebecca Botwright 9-5, 0-9, 0-9, 10-9, 9-6.
In her second appearance in a Tour final, the European Junior champion from Creteil now faces her third successive English opponent in a showdown with top seed Dominique Lloyd-Walter.
The 26-year-old from Harrow - who boasts a 100% success rate in the three WISPA finals in which she has competed so far - despatched Pakistan's Carla Khan 9-4, 9-4, 9-0 in the other semi-final.
