National player Ben Mekdeci made light a handicap of -13 to beat Medhi Ramdhani in straight games in the latest round of matches in the ANSA Mcal-Lucozade sponsored Handicap Tournament, hosted by the Guyana Squash Association (G.S.A.) sponsored by Cell phone giants Digicel at the Georgetown Club on Thursday evening.
Mekdeci made light work of the still fit Ramdhani, who started with a handicap of 6, to win 15/13, 15/14.
Hard working President of the G.S.A. David Fernandes and Suzie DeAbreu returned to the court with an energetic encounter which did not lack youthful exuberance nor excitement as the two veterans exchanged thoughtful blows with well executed winners in a throwback to their competitive days.
The much fitter looking DeAbreu took the first set 15/12, but the experienced Fernandes returned to take the following two 15/10, 15/8 to win by a 2-1 margin.
Michael Atherley took advantage of a 10 point handicap to beat Raphael DeGroot, who started with a handicap of -12, 2-1 (13/15, 15/-4, 15/-2).
