2010 Senior Caribbean Squash Championships …
THE saying ‘Older the wine, sweeter the taste’ could best describe Guyana’s squash player Richard Chin, who, despite a 19-year absence from Caribbean competition, was the lone Guyanese left standing at the end of the second day of the 2010 Senior Caribbean Squash Championships in St Vincent.. Chin lived up to his number two seeding by beating former world top 70 player Nick Kyme of Bermuda, but only after Kyme had eliminated two Guyanese from the main draw the previous day. 
Chin avenged his teammates in the most impressive manner with a lopsided drubbing of the former professional as he recorded a 11-3, 11-4, 11-1 victory that catapulted him into the semi-finals later that day with five-time Barbados national champion and current Caribbean number three-ranked player Shawn Simpson.
It was his match-up with the Barbadian that Chin displayed precision squash not often seen in the Caribbean.
His surgical drop shots, lobs and sublime placements had the Barbadian covering a lot of court and bending over from exhaustion, before he was put out of his misery when Chin closed out the match to win 11-3, 11-4, 11-6.
With the clinical win over Simpson, Chin secured for himself a place in the final of the competition where he was set to face the current Caribbean champ in Jamaica’s Chris Binnie last night.
Robert McDavid and Alex Arjoon being drawn against each other in the 3rd round of the consolation draw meant one Guyanese would be eliminated. 
After losing on day one to former senior champion Julian Chin, McDavid once again had to face another teammate in Arjoon where he came up short going down 6-11, 5-11, 10-12.
The 18-year-old Arjoon who showed focus and determination beyond his age in the third game against McDavid when he rallied back from 7-10 to claim the win, faced Jamaica’s Bruce Burrowes, who had beaten him 3-2 in a recent encounter, in his next match.
This time around, Burrowes did not give his Guyanese opponent any breathing space, as he closed out the match in four games, winning 11-9, 6-11, 11-8, 11-9 over a dejected Arjoon.
By virtue of losing in the third round of the main draw, Julian Chin was placed into the fourth round of the consolation draw where he played the match of his life and pulled off an impressive 3/2 win against Bermudian Chris Stout. 
Trailing 1 game to 2, Julian dug deep to win the fourth game in a tie breaker before he took command of the match and easily won the five-set thriller 8-11, 12-10, 3-11, 12-10, 11-2. 
With the win, Julian Chin advanced to the quarterfinals of the draw and a showdown with another Bermudan in Robert Maycock who ended his winning streak when they met four hours later.
