Malaysian squash star S. Sivasangari has emerged victorious at the Silicon Valley Open 2026, adding another prestigious title to her professional career and strengthening her reputation on the international squash circuit.
The triumph marks another significant achievement for the national squash player, who continues to make Malaysia proud through her performances against some of the world’s leading competitors.
The 27-year-old world No. 4 defeated Egypt’s Farida Mohamed in a 31-minute final at Redwood City, California, on Saturday, 24 October. The victory was particularly meaningful for Sivasangari, who had finished runner-up at the same tournament last year.
The title represents Sivasangari’s fourth PSA Gold-level championship and her first Professional Squash Association (PSA) Tour title of the 2026–2027 season. Her success further highlights her consistency among the world’s elite squash players.
Following her victory, Sivasangari expressed her ambition to reach even greater heights, setting her sights on winning a prestigious PSA Platinum-level tournament. The Kedah-born athlete also enjoyed a successful Asian Games campaign last month, retaining her women’s singles gold medal and helping Malaysia secure gold in the women’s team event.
