On September 23-26, 2021, the University of Pretoria hosted the 2021 USSA Squash Top 16 Tournament.

The application for participation included 6 women and 20 men representing 6 universities. In 2021, the USSA squash committee decided to split the competition due to the fact that the team championships, which take place in December, limit the participants in time and do not allow enough time to complete this part of the event.

The number two competitor, Kundanji Kalengo, who is studying electrical engineering at the Tshwane University of Technology, beat the number one competitor, Tristan Worth, 3-1 in the final. Tristan is a former SAU 19 champion and only lost one game leading to the final. Nevertheless, Kundanji, playing in the Zambian national team, won a well-deserved victory with a score of 3:1.

Among women, the champion was Helena Coetzi, a student of the University of Pretoria, who remains unbeaten in 5 games.

The Growing Points regional tournaments will be the defining tournaments for the men’s and women’s qualifiers, which will take part in the eight-player South Australian Championship draw.

Players from the South African districts will compete in regional tournaments led by siblings Dewald van Niekerk and Liesel Müller.

Liesel Muller finished second to Alex Fuller last year at the South Australian Championships. Muller established herself as the favorite for the title following her unbeaten streak at the Interprovincial Championship.

Dewald’s older brother, Rudy van Niekerk, will take part in the draw and will be one of the bright favorites to get a place among the eight qualifiers.

This time there will be two women’s tournaments in the region as there is no women’s tournament in Durban, with Teagan Roux and Cheyna Wood leading the respective draws.

Durbach is one of the top eight participants of last year and therefore the fight for qualification with Jacques Duminy is in for an exciting confrontation.
