Scotland's John White stunned world
No. 1 Amr Shabana of Egypt 3-2 in the first round of the British
Open squash championships on Friday.
Shabana was two points away from victory in the fourth game but
White came back to win in a tiebreak and also took the deciding game
for a 11-7, 10-11, 9-11, 11-10, 11-5 win.
``I had a game plan and stuck to it, which I haven't done for a
long time,'' White said.
The 33-year-old Scot, a former world No. 1, used to train at the
host University Sports Centre. White will play eighth-seeded Karim
Darwish of Egypt in the second round.
