Joelle King and Martin Knight have won their sections of the Wellington Open squash tournament.

For King, the world number 20, it was her fourth domestic title in five weeks.

The 21-year-old already has the Waikato Open, Remuera/Auckland Open and Herne Bay Open titles in the bag.

King beat former world number 24 Tamsyn Leevey 3-0 in the final at the Mana Squash Club to go through the event without dropping a game.

Meanwhile, the men's open draw also went to plan with top seed Knight, the world number 42, taking out the title by beating second seed Evan Williams 3-1 in the final.
