“I’m happy I was here to watch this,” one spectator remarked after local squash queen Nicolette Fernandes toppled 17-year old Barbadian national Meagan Best 3-0 in a lopsided final of the women’s category of the ongoing Senior Caribbean Singles and Doubles Championships (CASA) last evening at the Georgetown Club Squash Court.
It was almost a disappointing one-sided bout as Fernandes, who seemed laser focused from the get-go, took an early 5-1 lead in the first set and eventually clinched it 11-4.
“That is the Nicolette of old,” another spectator said as the Guyanese continued to control the script in the second set, crafting a couple of cheeky shots to take it 11-2.
