The 20-year-old was competing at the 305SQUASH Open in Crewe which was the second instalment of the 305SQUASH Tri-Series.

Prott didn’t drop a game throughout the tournament, beating Finnlay Withington in the final.

He said: “It feels really good. I played a lot better this time and was really happy with my performance.

“I watched back the previous match against Finnlay with Scottish Squash coaches Paul Bell and Kylie Lindsay and we identified that I was playing well in spells but was too up and down.

“The quality was higher this time and importantly I was able to maintain that quality for longer spells.

“I made less mistakes and it was a better all-round performance.”

He continued: “I’m feeling good getting back into competition and I think the whole Scottish squad are showing that the hard work in training we all put in before the restart is paying off.

“I’m now playing in more professional tournaments and beginning to adapt following so many years on the junior circuit.”
