Irish duo Conor Moran and Sam Buckley will continue their search for points to move up the PSA men’s rankings on Wednesday in France.
Both Sutton players are entered to play in the round of 32 at the Simply the Brest PSA Challenger elimination event that runs until Sunday.
Fresh from last week’s Stourbridge Open title victory in England that shunted him up 10 places in the world rankings, 2025 Irish Nationals champion Moran is unseeded in France.
He is drawn to play the 9/16 seed Bailey Malik, the English player ranked No.176 on the PSA list.
At stake is a round of 16 fixture on Thursday against Brice Nicolas, the Brest No.4 seed, who is the PSA No.83.
Buckley, the PSA No.122, has been drawn against French wildcard Arthur Mouneau, with a round of 16 tie versus No.1 seed Emyr Evans, the PSA No.69 from Wales, awaiting the winner.
ROUND OF 32 FIXTURES
Conor Moran v Bailey Malik [9/16] – Wednesday, 12:45pm French time
Sam Buckley [9/16] v Arthur Moineau [WC] – Wednesday, 6:45pm French time
