Career Born in Wandsworth , London , Janet was originally a Tennis player who played for Britain in the Wightman Cup in 1946 . She quickly turned to squash and in 1948 and 1949 was a losing finalist against Joan Curry . In 1950 she won her first British Open title, beating Curry in the final. She went on to win the trophy for the next 10 successive years through to 1959 . Persistent back injuries meant that she had to retire in 1960 . She became the first chairwoman of the Women's Squash Racquets Association soon after. Janet also found time to write a book in 1953 entitled ''Squash rackets for women''. British Open Results
