The young squash Maltese athlete, Lijana Sultana has just made history after becoming the Under 17 Australian Championships for the second time in a row.

Last year, when she was just 15 years old, she won the title for the first time and now she has won it again at 16.

She did this all through convincing wins against all those who competed against her and without losing one single game.  

For the final game she competed against Joanne Joseph but she still came out victorious.

What an amazing feat!
