Squash: Despite tough fight, India's Joshna Chinappa loses PSA title

India's leading women's squash player Joshna Chinappa's hopes of securing a 12th PSA title were crushed after losing a pulsating finale to top seed Joelle King in the HKFC International in Hong Kong on Saturday. 

Despite producing a spirited performance, the 29-year-old went down 11-9, 11-9, 9-11, 11-8 against the New Zealander in the summit clash. King had also ended sixth seed Dipika Pallikal's campaign in the quarterfinal round of the USD 25,000 event.
