27/10/2009 - Jaclyn Hawkes plays a starring role in the 2010 WISPA Calendar, featuring as Miss May |
New Zealand's world No14 Jaclyn Hawkes has a starring role in the 2010 Women's International Squash Players' Association Calendar, which was launched at last month's Forexx Women's World Open Championship in Amsterdam.
The calendar is the result of an alluring photo shoot set up during the recent Cayman Islands Open and features the top WISPA squash players in designer swimwear.
WISPA players from all over the world are featured in this latest edition, including Malaysia's Nicol David and Natalie Grainger, from the USA - ranked one and two, respectively, in the world.
Jaclyn, who hails from Auckland but is currently based in the UK, is Miss May.
"It was really great for us to be able to show that there is another side to us as well as being sweaty squash players," said 26-year-old Jaclyn. "We can scrub up nicely and certainly are not one dimensional!
"Doing the WISPA calendar shots was a lot of fun - and in a brilliant location too.
"It was great fun and an absolute joy to team up with celebrated US photographer Patricia Lyons, who was responsible for the shoot," added the Kiwi calendar girl.
All the Calendar Girls thoroughly enjoyed the Cayman hot sun and crystal clear waters, showing that there is more to admire about these top athletes than their on-court skills!
"They certainly converted their professionalism from court to beach with ease and the result is simply stunning!" said Lyons.
Jaclyn is one of nearly 300 players, from over 40 countries, who compete on a World Tour that features around 80 events annually.
