BRILLIANT Laura Massaro booked her place in the final of the British National Squash Championships this afternoon as she dug deep to beat Northern Ireland's Madeline Perry in a hard fought semi-final.

The East Lancashire ace, from Chorley, won 3-1 in two minutes short of an hour to book her spot in a second final, where she will take to court against number one seed Jenny Duncalf.

The 27-year-old won 11/8, 12/14, 11/3, 11/9 in 58 minutes and will now contest the final in Manchester on Sunday afternoon.
