The third day of the 2019 Guyana Squash Association (GSA) Annual Bounty Farm Handicap Tournament saw a number of Guyana’s premier squash players swinging into action at the Georgetown Club Squash Court last evening.

Leading the way was Guyana’s number one male seeded player Alex Arjoon who in his first match of the season completed a herculean effort, playing with a -22 handicap to defeat Ian Mekdeci (5) 15-12, 15-11 in the open category. 

The night, however, was not as successful  for one of Guyana’s top female players Taylor Fernandes who was defeated by former junior Caribbean champion Damien Da Silva who won the match 15-6, 15-13.
