Alan Clyne and Lisa Aitkin Are the 2018 Scottish National Champions
Harrow’s Alan Clyne and Lisa Aitkin won the Scottish National Titles last weekend at Edinburgh Sports Club.
Alan, who was seeded No.2, has now won a very impressive 8 titles (including doing the double with 3 Titles in a row). He beat Greg Lobban 3-1 in the Final that was live streamed on Facebook (11-3, 6-11, 11-2, 11-6).
Lisa won her 2nd Scottish National title (the first being in 2010) and she is now almost back to her best as she climbs the World PSA Rankings again (currently PSA No.58). Lisa beat Ali Thomson in a convincing 3-0 win (11-8 11-5, 11-4) and her electric pace kept her in a dominant position throughout the match.
Congrats to Alan and Lisa!
