Not real important. I am just interested in past champions.
This is what I can find :
The score line : 9-2, 6-9, 9-1, 9-1 I guess taking a game of Khan was the highlight of his career

"Dean Williams

Dean Williams is a retired squash player from Australia. He was one of the leading players in the game in the late-1970s and early-1980s.

In 1982, Williams finished runner-up at the World Open, losing in the final to the legendary Pakistani player Jahangir Khan 9-2, 6-9, 9-1, 9-1.

Since retiring from the top-level game, Williams has worked as a squash coach and remained active in seniors tournaments.

Yes I was around in Dean's day.  Very aggressive player, and dynamic around the court.
Ray really knows about as much, in fact, more than I do.
Dean Had his signature on some rackets also in his heyday.
If it is reall important that info could be updated.

Can't help you out a hell of a lot viper, but i have met dean briefly once or twice although I don't really know him. He was at his peak in the early to mid eighties being one of australia's top players for a period (not sure how long) he hails from Western Australia.

The last I heard he was managing one of Perth's more prominent sports/country  clubs (the name escapes me for the moment) Rita may know a little more about his Squash career but is away at present.
