King on target to claim another crown

Joelle King and Kylie Lindsay will squard off in the women's final at the South Island Champinships.

New Zealand squash star Joelle King is on target to claim another crown, cruising into the final of the North Island Championships in Cambridge.

The world number 13, who is yet to drop a game in the tournament, has crushed fourth seed Megan Craig 11-3, 11-3, 11-6 in the semifinals.  She will meet second seeded Kylie Lindsay in the title decider tomorrow.  Lindsay eared her place in the final with a hard fought 12-10, 6-11, 12-10, 11-9 victory over third seed Amanda Landers-Murphy.

Meanwhile, Campbell Grayson is also in good shape to take out the men's draw.  The top seed is through to the semifinals after a 11-4, 12-10, 1-3 victory over Joseph Watts and looks to be on track to add the North Island title to the South Island crown he won two weeks ago.

Second seed Evan Williams is also safely through to the semis, beating Zac Millar 11-4, 11-5, 11-6 and will play third seed Paul Coll for a place in the final.  Coll earned his spot in the last four with an 11-2, 11-6, 13-11 win over Christopher Lloyd.  However, the tournament has come to an early end for four seed liver Johnston who was beaten 7-11, 7-11, 11-6, 13-11, 12-10 Lance Beddoes.  Beddoes will now play Grayson in the last four.
