Dipika P. Karthik - PB WR # 10 in Dec 2012

Post by Kumar »

After her stupendous show in Western India Squash championship, when she won both under 15 and 19 championship and was a finalist in ladies championship, time to start a new thread for this chennai girl (or if you ask Jay Malayali girl  :wink: ), Deepika Pallikal ... She has a huge potential to trump Joshna!!!

Deepika Pallikal - Rising Star

Post by BSharma »

Here are some of Dipika Pallikal's achievements:

- Dipika Pallikal has won the German Junior Open, Australian Open and Belgium Junior Open (in her age group division).

- She lost to seed #1 Wee Wern Low in the QF of 2005 British Open (under 15 age group) and to Salma Nassar (Egy) in 2004 (under 13) and won 5th place by beating Laura Gemmell (Canada) 3-9, 2-9, 9-4, 9-7, 9-2.

- She won the girls under 15 years Dittmar Challenge National junior squash series at Adelaide, Australia.

- She won the Scottish Junior Open 2003 (under 13 age group)

I will try to find more results and information about Dipika, but other people can add information about her if they find them.

Addendum:

She won the French Junior squash Open held in Marseilles in 2005 beating Emilie Lamilango of France 8-10, 5-9, 9-6, 9-5, 9-5 in the final.

Congratulations Deepika.  Playing in the qualifier of the WISPA tournament in Hyderabad recently must have given her incentive to become a top WISPA player once she graduates from the junior to the senior ranks.
