Doha Double Delight

2 Asian Games gold from squash...Nicol David and Ong Beng Hee, Congratulations!!!

World Number 1, Nicol downed defending Champion Rebecca Chiu of Hong Kong, 9-0, 9-3, 9-3 in 34 minutes. Nicol lost out to Rebecca 4 years ago and now has a sweet revenge.

And defending Champion, Beng Hee downed compatriot, Azlan Iskandar, 5-9, 9-1, 10-9, 9-5 which lasted 73 minutes.

"There is no thought of revenge. It is more about wanting to win that medal. She is a hard player to play and I had to keep her out of her comfort zone.
"It was a good match and I feel really ecstatic. It was the last day of the last tournament of the year and there was so much pressure on both girls leading into the game. It has been a great year and a great way to finish off by winning here."
