Malaysian squash star Nicol David won her 50th World Tour title on Saturday as she beat her old rival, Australia's Rachael Grinham, 11-5, 11-8, 11-9 in the Qatar Classic final.
The 27-year-old five-time world champion romped to victory in her 32nd meeting with the former world champion in 34 minutes to reach the milestone and win her fourth Qatar Classic since 2006.
"It's great to win again in Qatar," David says.
"I didn't like losing here last year (she lost in the semi-finals).
"Rachael and I know each other's games so well, you're always going to get close matches and long rallies.
"You try not to think about past matches, head to head records - but the one you lost always comes to your mind and you know it's not going to be easy," added David, whose head to head record with 33-year-old fourth seed Grinham reads 26 wins and six losses.
