Jimmy Lowe will have a chance to defend his Classic Pro Racquetball Tour (CPRT) title Sunday at the 2014 United Healthcare US Open Racquetball Championships in Minneapolis after defeating Brad McCunniff, 9-5, 2-9, 9-7, 9-1, in the semi-finals on Saturday.

If Lowe wins on Sunday it will be third CPRT US Open title. He won his first in 2008 and second last year.

Lowe's opponent will be Thomas Fuhrmann, who had a forfeit win over Doug Ganim in the semis. In the quarterfinals, Fuhrmann took out last year's finalist Corey Osborne in five games, 7-9, 9-8, 5-9, 9-6, 10-8.
