Colets' Tammy B Crowned British Open Champion
We are delighted to share some fantastic news from the squash courts.
Last weekend, Colets member Tammy B claimed the Women's Over 65s title at the British Open Masters Championships in Birmingham - one of the most prestigious events in the Masters squash calendar. The British Open is regarded as the second most important Masters title in the world, behind only the World Championships, making Tammy's achievement all the more remarkable.
The tournament brings together the very best age-group players from across the UK and beyond, with competitors battling for one of the sport's most sought-after titles.
Tammy's victory is a testament to her dedication, hard work, and commitment to continuous improvement. Her success is not only a proud moment for herself but for the entire Colets squash community.
A Word from Our Head of Squash
Neal Brooker, Head of Squash at Colets, said:
"It is fantastic to see Tammy win this title following her unwavering commitment to training and making tiny changes in pursuit of continuous improvement. Congratulations Tammy!"
The Final
England Squash Masters Chairman and fellow Colets player Stuart Hardy reported on the final:
"Jill Campion of Wales is a six-time champion and was the favourite here. But Tamsin Bennett of Surrey had obviously put in a lot of work and was not going to surrender easily. Playing very positive squash, the Colets player took the first but let the second slip 12/10. The third quickly followed but, playing with more discipline and growing confidence, she took the next two games for her first British Open title."
Everyone at Colets would like to extend our heartfelt congratulations to Tammy on this outstanding achievement. We are incredibly proud to have such an accomplished player representing the club and look forward to seeing what she achieves next.
