Historic runner-up finish for Iranian squash player in Japan

Iranian squash player Fereshteh Eghtedari made history by finishing as runner-up at the Women's World Ranking Tournament in Yokohama, Japan — a milestone achievement for Iranian women in the sport.

Competing with a world ranking of 263, Eghtedari advanced to the final of the $6,000 PSA tournament after impressive victories over opponents from Japan, Malaysia, and South Korea.

In the final, she was defeated 3–0 by Malaysia’s Ainaa Amani Kumar but secured the silver medal and her first-ever finals appearance at this level of international competition.
