Elias wins Squash Player’s Player of the
Month award

Diego Elias is Squash Player’s Player of the Month, after winning Peru’s first squash gold medal at the Pan American Games in July in front of his home fans.

The 22-year-old top seed defeated defending champion Miguel Rodriguez 11-6, 7-11, 12-10, 11-8 in a 65-minute men's final before a packed partisan crowd in Lima.

Elias’s win avenged his loss in the 2015 final to the Colombian and was the Peruvian's first ever win over his 33-year-old regional rival from Bogota in seven meetings.
