Published August 6, 2002

ISLAMABAD, Aug 5: Six foreigners, among them an Australian and two Englishmen, have sent in their entries for next month’s Chief of the Naval Staff (CNS) Championship in Karachi, a spokesman for the Pakistan Squash Federation (PSF) said Monday.

Australian John Williams, ranked 36 in the world, Ben Garner of England, No 71 on the ladder, and his countryman Andrew Whipp, No. 84 will be competing in the US $25,000 championship.

Entries for the event due to run between September 19 and 24, have also been received from 20th ranked Omar Elborolossy of Egypt, Mubashir Gul of Singapore and Czech Martin Dzur.

The spokesman said they were expecting more entries from foreign nationals as there was a lot of time between now and the closing date of August 25.
