KUALA LUMPUR: After climbing to a career-best world number seven on Monday, national women's squash ace S. Sivasangari is determined to keep rising.
The 26-year-old Hangzhou Asian Games gold medallist achieved a career breakthrough by rising to world number seven, surpassing Egypt's Amina Orfi in the latest ranking update.
"I am happy to have reached my highest ranking so far; all the hard work has been paying off. I hope to keep climbing the rankings and improving.
"Beyond grateful for this journey and for reaching yet another significant moment in my career. Always thankful to my amazing team for their endless support and for pushing me every step of the way," she posted on her social media accounts.
