Pakistan Consulate General Melbourne Moazzam Shah hosted WSF World Junior Squash champion Hamza Khan to celebrate his victory on Wednesday.
Hamza was acknowledged for his wonderful performance in the world event. Shah presented a gift to Hamza for bringing the title to Pakistan after 37 years.
Hamza beat Egypt's Mohamed Zakaria in the final with a scoreline of 10-12, 14-12, 11-3 and 11-6 to hand the junior title to Pakistan after 37 years.
Despite losing the first game, Hamza made a grand comeback to win three on the bounce.
Zakaria took the first game 12-10, which lasted for 26 minutes to take the lead.
The second game was another thrilling encounter. The Pakistani player was down 8-10 but he denied Zakaria the much-needed game point twice and levelled the match with a 14-12 win.
The next two games were totally a contradiction to what everyone witnessed in first two games. Hamza won the third game without much resistance in six minutes with score of 11-3 before winning the fourth 11-6.
