Nash Cup Main Draw Clashes Ahead in Canada

#PSAWorldTour

The 2015 Nash Cup, PSA M15 tournament main draw hits the courts on Wednesday September 16 with the Women’s event already underway.

Peru’s Diego Elias in the number one seed in the Men’s draw as he looks to kickstart his search for his fourth PSA World Tour title.

The talented 18-year-old had a magnificent summer, winning silver at the Pan American Games in Toronto before claiming his second World Junior Championship crown. Elias also scalped Marwan Elshorbagy at the Abierto Colombiano de Squash Club el Nogal before bowing out in the quarter-final.

World No.37 Elias is the one to beat in Canada and will face Cameron Stafford in the opening round.

Finland’s Henrik Mustonen has been in fine form recently, making it to the final of the Open International de Squash de Nantes before reaching the semi-final stage of the Champion Fiberglass Open last week.

He will go up against Reiko Peter in round one as he aims to pick up his first PSA World Tour title since 2011.

Eddie Charlton has also reached the latter stages of his two most recent tournaments with semi-finishes at both the Nantes International and Fiberglass Open culminating in disappointing defeats for the 27-year-old.

The number three seed has plenty of ability and will be a real force to be reckoned with as he lines up against Jan van den Herrewegen for a place in the quarter-final.

Maria Toorpakai Wazir heads up the Women’s event and has reached three finals so far this year, winning one of them.

She received a walkover in the opening round and will meet Danielle Letourneau in the quarter-final.

Mille Tomlinson is also amongst the forerunners for the title in the women’s draw having already won the Dafi Consult Invest Squash Open earlier this year.

The World No.55, who reached the quarter-final of the NSCI Open JSW Indian Squash Circuit two weeks ago, defeated Holly Delavigne 3-0 in the first round and will play Giselle Delgado for a place in the last four.
