King goes down to Massaro
13 Sep 2013A top effort from Joelle King, but unfortunately not quite enough in the quarter-finals of the Malaysian Open.
A top effort from New Zealand's Joelle King, but it proved to be not quite enough in the quarterfinals of the CIMB Malaysian Open in Kuala Lumpur.
The world number five pushed second seed Laura Massaro to five games, but couldn't quite get over the line, with the English world number two simply too strong in the fifth game decider. Little had separated the two players in the opening four games, but Massaro stepped it up when it mattered to complete a 12-14, 11-9, 11-8, 8-11, 11-3 victory.
