Former national player Denis Dias collected Guyana’s most convincing win on the second evening of the inaugural BCQS International Masters Squash tournament at the Georgetown Club squash court, last night. 

 Dias who was a regular feature in the Guyanese set up a few decades ago, defeated Bajan Errol Pilgrim in an exciting five-setter which he clinched 11-5, 11-6, 8-11, 8-11, 11-4 in the over 65 bout. 

 Lloyd Fung A Fat also etched his name into the winner’s row by downing Frank Jordan (Bar) in straight sets, 11-4, 11-7, 11-9 to deliver another win for the host, this time in the over 55 category.

 Those wins were the highlight of the evening for the host after a few of the other local players suffered defeats. 

 Wayne Alphonso went down to Tony Roach (Bar) 0-3, while Joe Mekdeci who had an excellent opening match, failed to replicate his heroics as he was defeated by Mark Sealy (Bar) 0-3 in their over 45 contest. Similarly, Winston Findlay (BVI) got the better of Tony Farnum 3-1 in an over 65 duel. Those were the results up to press time. 

 The championship ends today.
