The Nigeria no 1 who missed the 2018 Calgary Professional Squash Association (PSA) Women’s Championships in Canada last March is attending her first international event.
Olatunji said the Open is a process of working towards a return for the 2018 season.
The Lagos Classics Semi finalist said “There’s no question that I’m ready and I want to defend my title here in Zimbabwe. It would be a pretty significant accomplishment this on a foreign soil”.

“After placing third at the Lagos Squash Classic Open in March, I had trained hard for the Calgary Championships in March but you already know the story – I could not attend. That would have been an opportunity for me to improve my game”.
“The Chamberlain Squash Open did not really go well for me and I hope I’ll be able to retain my title here as a compensation”, the bronze medallist at the 2017 Namibia Open said.
