Squash: Yusuf credits his win to resolve

Quadri Yusuf, who triumphed in the men’s singles and U-19 boys’ finals at the Prime Atlantic Squash Championship, attributed his success to diligence and resolve.
In the U-19 category, Yusuf triumphed over Joshua Daniel with scores of 11-5, 11-8, and 11-3 (3-0). He then bested the second seed Tarus Sulaimon with scores of 11-8, 11-4, 6-11, and 11-6 (3-1).

I want to thank the sponsors, my coach, and the fans who supported me throughout the tournament.

“I’m delighted with the victory and now looking forward to more competitions at home and abroad,” he added.

In the U-19 girls’ final, Aishat Abdulkareem beat Zainob Ishola in a tightly contested match that drew strong reactions from the crowd.

Abdulkareem won the first set 11-5. Ishola improved in the second but still lost 15-13 in an intense back-and-forth exchange.

Abdulkareem’s power play was too much for Ishola, sealing the win in the third set 11-7 for a straight-set victory (3-0).
