PRESS RELEASE: 28th March 2010 2010 YONEX KENYA INTERNATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIPS This year’s Yonex Kenya International Badminton Championships came to a close earlier today. In the Men’s Singles final, a match that could easily have gone either way, unseeded Oscar Bansal of India came from behind to beat third seeded Alistair Casey of Scotland 14-21; 21-13; 21-19 to win this years event. Oscar dominated the game at the net with delicate shots that Alistair was at pains to tame. The final set saw a neck to neck fight until Alistair misjudged a shot which landed just inside the back of his court to lose the game and put a smile on Oscar’s face. The Mixed Doubles saw third seeded Ifraimu Jinkam and Susan Ideh of Nigeria lose to siblings Anna and Wiaan Viljoen of South Africa 14-21; 13-21. In the Women’s Doubles, first seeds Michelle Edwards and Anna Viljoen of South Africa fought hard to justify their seeding by beating second seeds Susan Ideh and Maria Braimoh of Nigeria 21-13; 12-21; 21-11. The Women’s Singles winner was first seed Anne Greece who dismissed unseeded Grace Gabriel of Nigeria 21-6; 21-10. The Men’s Doubles event saw second seeds Dorian James and Wiaan Viljoen of South Africa upset first seeds Ifraimu Jinkam and Ola Fagbemi of Nigeria 21-19; 21-17 in a closely contested match. The next event on the association’s calendar will be the Rift Valley Open Badminton Championships which will be held on Eldoret on 24th and 25th of April 2010.
