The Grange squash Open takes place this weekend with Scottish teenage prospect Robyn McAlpine and Sam Osborne-Wylde, from Worcester, strongly fancied in the women’s and men’s events.
Running alongside the PSA competitions will be graded tournaments.
McAlpine, from Glasgow, has had an impressive rise to prominence having won national under-17, under-19 and under-23 titles in the same year, becoming a senior internationalist into the bargain.
Osborne-Wylde heads into the Grange tournament on the back of winning the Northumbria Open, eliminating the top seed on the way through.
Action gets underway on the Portgower Place courts on Friday afternoon with the finals scheduled for Sunday afternoon.
