Brady battles to US Open victory

CAVAN’S Paul Brady collected a cheque for $25,000 (€17,637) after winning the US Open of Handball in California on Sunday night.

Trailing Seattle’s Sean Lenning 10-7 in the final tiebreaker, the Irish man rallied for an 11-10 win to take victory.

Said Brady: “He (Lenning) keeps coming back at you and I know we’ll have many more great matches in the future. It was a really hard battle in there and I’m just glad I came out on top in the end.”
