Final
Incredible Finals Day Sees Hedrick & Jadishkumar Claim
Titles In Melbourne
Rex Hedrick
he crowd at Mulgrave Country Club couldn’t have asked for a better
finals day at the Victorian Open yesterday as both finals went the
distance to decide the 2023 champions. Yasshmita Jadishkumar came
through in the women’s event to claim back-to-back titles whilst home
favourite Rex Hedrick successfully defended his title in a 70 minute
clash to lift the men’s trophy.
The women’s final was a repeat of the one in last week’s City of Greater
Shepparton International which saw Jadishkumar take home the title in a
four game clash, it was a lot closer as the two squared off again in the
final yesterday. The No.2 seeded Malaysian raced out to a comfortable
2-0 lead against Korea’s Mingyeong Heo but the Korean would not go down
without a fight. She mounted her comeback and claimed both the third and
fourth games 11-5 to force a fifth.
The Malaysian regained her composure when it mattered in the fifth game
and played the big points well to close it out 11-9 and earn her third
career title and second in succession.
The men’s final was experience vs youth as 34 year old local favourite
Rex Hedrick looked to successfully defend his title against 18-year-old
World Junior Champion Rowan Damming. The Netherlands’ junior has already
claimed two titles in Australia recently and after taking the first game
12-10 looked confident enough to take another.
Hedrick was competing in his 138th tournament this week, looking to
claim a 21st career title on home soil. Despite the Australian No.1
winning game two, he found himself immediately behind again as Damming
took a 2-1 lead winning 11-8 in the third game. Hedrick responded
emphatically however, winning game four 11-1 to set up a nail-biting
finale.
In an entertaining fifth game it was the home player who narrowly came
out on top, winning 11-9 to hold onto his Victorian Open title for at
least another year. |
