England's Jenny Duncalf prepared for Commonwealth Games squash quarter-final

Jenny Duncalf insists that she is feeling good ahead of her meeting with 2010 Commonwealth Games final opponent Nicol David.

Team England's Jenny Duncalf has insisted that she is feeling good ahead of her squash quarter-final showdown with Nicol David.

The 31-year-old beat Canada's Sam Cornett 11-4 11-5 11-7 to comfortably book her passage into the next round at the Emirates Arena.

"I'm pretty pleased, I've not played Sam before so I didn't want to take her for granted at all, she's a good player," Duncalf told reporters following the match. "I started off quite well and managed to keep my focus, I didn't give her any errors and I was moving well."

Looking ahead to the meeting with Malaysia's David, Duncalf added: "I'm playing Nicol next who I lost to in the final last time. It's a bit earlier in the tournament now. At the moment I'm not too bothered about results, as long as I perform well and feel like I have done myself justice, hopefully the result will take care of itself.



"I feel physically I have got as good a chance as I have done for a while. I've played a lot more squash in the last five weeks and I just feel my timing, and hitting and shot selection is a lot more second nature."

Duncalf won a silver medal at the Commonwealths four years ago in Delhi.
