She won the 1995 World Junior Squash Championships individual event in Sydney, which was her highest career performance. With this triumph, she also became the first ever New Zealander to win a Junior Squash Championship singles title. On 14 May 1998, she committed suicide in Perth after becoming an international professional player.[2] In 2013, Squash New Zealand recognised the Wilson's achievements and inducted her into the New Zealand Squash Hall of Fame, 15 years after her death.[2] Early lifeWilson was born in 1977 and was raised in Wellington.
