Tania Bailey

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Tania Bailey (born 2 October 1979, in Stamford, United Kingdom) is a professional squash player from England.

As a junior player, Bailey won the World Junior Championship in 1997 and captained the England team to World and European junior team titles.

A car accident led to career-threatening knee surgery at the age of 21, but she successfully recovered and resumed her playing career.

In 2003, Bailey finished runner-up to Sarah Fitz-Gerald at the British Open. She reached a career-high ranking of World No. 4 that year.

In February 2006 Tania clinched the greatest prize of her career so far by winning the British National Championships in Manchester. She defeated the No.1 seed and previous champion Linda Elriani 3-1 in a hotly contested 76 minute final.
