The top seed came back from a set down to beat Saurav Ghosal of India 9-11, 11-9, 11-5, 11-7 in a 72-minute battle in the final to deliver the country’s 28th medal in the Games. His victory also ended Malaysia’s 13-year wait to wrest back the Asiad men’s singles title, after Ong Beng Hee and Mohd Azlan Iskandar dominated the event.
“Squash achieved the target here and always delivered for the country. Thanks for all the support. Before this, some might think squash would face a medal draught after the retirement of Datuk Nicol David, Beng Hee and Mohd Azlan but those who follow the developments know Sivasangari and I have contributed many medals to the country,” he said.
