10 Sep 2007
Margriet Huisman beat fellow Dutch player Orla Noom in the final of the Women's Pepsi Enschede Open to claim her fourth WISPA World Tour title of the year at De Twentehallen in the Netherlands city of Enschede.
The 23-year old top seed, who earlier in the year won the Swedish Open, Swiss Open and the Hemubo Trophy in Almere, took a 2/0 lead against her regular training partner before Noom hit back to level the match.
The fifth and final game saw Huisman open up a quick 5-0 lead, which proved a big enough cushion for the world number 39. After 79 minutes of high quality squash, Huisman beat her 21-year-old opponent, the No2 seed, 9-5, 9-5, 7-9, 4-9, 9-4 to take the glory and the ranking points which will see her continue her rise on the world rankings.
Final:
[1] Margriet Huisman (NED) bt [2] Orla Noom (NED) 9-5, 9-5, 7-9, 4-9, 9-4 (79m)
