Day 5 :
FINAL
Richie Fallows 3-0 Nathan Lake 11-4, 11-5, 11-8 (35mins)
Packed house in Galway for the final, rightfully so after the squash that both players had produced all week.
Richie had a slightly smoother run and was likely to be fresher than Nathan, who had a monster 83minute semifinal.
From the start it was evident that as long as Richie could control the middle of the court he would dictate. Nathan dug deep, as youโd expect from the seasoned pro, but the first two games escaped him rather quick.
In the third he sparked a bit, pushing his trusting straight length to better effect. He got in front, attacked well but Richie was able to match him. Slightly too good when it mattered, Fallows closed out the third and the match. An impressive display today and all week. He follows in the footsteps of Ali Farag, Simon Rosner and many more top talented players to win this event.
He was well supported by the juniors all week, testament to his likability off the court.
A great week of inspiring squash played in great spirit. A huge thanks to the sponsor and all involved. Squash - PSA Challenger Tour Sport Ireland ... See MoreSee Less

West Of Ireland Day 4
A big day of squash in Galway Lawn Tennis club today. Some of the proโs were kind enough to spend time with local juniors, inspiring for so many of them! Three squash events operating, junior club champs, West of Ireland graded event and most importantly the big semi finals which didnโt disappoint.
[1] Richie Fallows (ENG) 3-0
[4] Patrick Rooney (ENG) 11-5, 11-5, 11-9 (43mins)
The crowd were definitely hoping to see a few more games in this match, quality exchanges but Fallows pushing harder to take the important points.
Some frustration from Patrick in the dying few rallies, he would definitely have liked to squeeze the 3rd and test himself further.
Richie will be fresh for his opponent, Nathan Lake, who may struggle to recover after his marathon.
[2] Nathan Lake (ENG) 3-2 [3] Sebastien Bonmalais (FRA)
10-12, 12-10, 11-3, 6-11, 9-11 (83Mins)
Seb got off to a lightening start, hardly allowing the ball reach the back wall. He was certainly pushing the pace, volleying everything!! Nathan was up to the task, they traded points for two games.
The third took a turn as Nathan looked to be struggling.. He somehow managed to find a second wind, clinging on to get the 4th.
All odds were against him in the 5th but he showed how important experience is at the top level, fighting point by point to 9-9.. Then itโs anyones match.
Seb was so athletic, so quick. Brilliant to watch. Couldnโt quite hold off the tenacious Englishman, winning it in 83 minutes. ... See MoreSee Less
