Milou van der Heijden joined the Tour in 2007, and has cemented herself as the Dutch No.1 over recent years.
It took her five years to capture her first Tour title but she defeated a series of home-grown players to storm to the NT Open crown in May 2012. In February 2014 the Dutchwoman won her first Dutch Nationals title and followed that up with success at the WA Open three months later.
She was met with further triumphs in 2015 as she retained her Dutch Nationals title and added the Malaysian Tour Squash II crown to her burgeoning title collection. Heijden finished off 2015 with another title after victory over Cryielle Peltier – who she had finished runner-up to one week prior at the New South Wales Open – in the City of Greater Bendigo International.
In 2016, she finished runner-up to Hana Moataz at the Grand Sport Armenia 1st Challenger 5. However, Heijden went onto taste more success, this time at the Val de Marne when she downed Julianne Courtice over three games in the final. Another title came in the form of the Jersey Squash Classic the following year when she beat Lisa Aitken to seal victory and another title.
The Dutchwoman then made the quarter finals of both the Slaight Music Granite Open and the Monte Carlo Classic in the latter part of the year in 2017. Heijden made the semi finals of the Nash Cup in 2018, but endured a barren spell in the second half of the calendar year.
The Dutch No.1 went on to secure her first victory of 2019 at the Annecy Rose Open, where she beat French star Coline Aumard in the final. She followed that up with some good performances in the major tournaments, including last 16 appearances at the Manchester Open, J.P. Morgan China Squash Open, Open de France - Nantes presented by Tailor Capital and the Oracle NetSuite Open.
Van der Heijden made the second round of the PSA Women’s World Championship in 2019-2020, before winning the Savcor Finnish Open on the Challenger Tour. Her last appearance of 2020 came before the sport’s enforced suspension, where she made the semis of the Calgary CFO Consulting Services Women’s Squash Week.
In her first appearance of 2021, van der Heijden added to her title tally, with a victory at the DSQV Sportwerk Series: Esche Cup, as she defeated Saskia Beinhard in straight games in the final. She would add another victory later in the year, winning the Bremer Schlussel, her tenth success on Tour. Elsewhere, she reached the semis of the Squash Eredivisie - Speelronde 6 and the last 16 of the Sportwerk Women’s Open.
