Biography:
Londoner Adrian Grant has been a PSA member since 1999 and has maintained an unbroken presence in the world top 20 since March 2006. He burst into the top 10 in June 2009 and claimed a career-high No9 world ranking two months later in August.
And after winning his first PSA Tour title at the Wellington Open in New Zealand in 2000, Grant claimed his biggest ten years later in November 2010 when he won the Santiago Open in Spain, beating Egypt’s Omar Mosaad in the final.
It was the left-hander’s best Tour success of the year in which, off the Tour, he won his first Commonwealth Games gold medal, partnering world No1 Nick Matthew in the Men’s Doubles.
After tearing his abductor in the second round of the 2010 World Open in Saudi Arabia, Grant made a tentative start to his 2011 campaign after a lengthy layoff.
But the 30-year-old battled through to the Manitoba Open final in Canada in March – where he beat top-ranked US player Julian Illingworth to celebrate the 18th Tour title of his career in his 26th final.
