England’s James Snell secured his first title on the PSA World Tour when he beat Egyptian Karim Abdel Gawad in the final of the Japan Pro Squash Kansai, a $3,000 event at the XIST Sports Club in Wakayama, Japan. The second seed from Devon comfortably reached the final without dropping a game - while Abdel Gawad, the fifth seed, made his breakthrough after upsetting top seed Christopher Gordon in the quarter-finals.
