Amanda Sobhy & Mohamed ElShorbagy Both Claim Third
Oracle NetSuite Open Titles
USA’s Amanda Sobhy and England’s Mohamed ElShorbagy have both claimed
their third Oracle NetSuite Open titles in San Francisco after beating
Egyptian duo Farida Mohamed and Marwan ElShorbagy in tough four games
battles.
The women’s final opened the play on finals night as No.1 seed Amanda
Sobhy took on surprise finalist Farida Mohamed to defend her Oracle
Netsuite Open title in front of a packed crowd at Pier 70, San
Francisco.
The pair had met twice previously on the PSA World Tour with the
American taking both encounters 3-0, the latest of which being at the
J.P Morgan Tournament of Champions in May. Sobhy took control of the
opening game and lead 8-5, hitting hard to the back corners and
finishing loose returns superbly. Mohamed found her way back into the
game however and fired off several winners to storm into the lead and
take the opening game 11-9.
Sobhy didn’t panic however and used her experience to stick to her game
plan and started to dominate proceedings once more. By finding terrific
length and working Mohamed into all four corners, the World No.4 took
the next two games 11-3, 11-5 to lead 2-1 and place one hand on the
trophy.
The No.1 seed’s momentum continued as her relentless hitting was
constantly troubling her younger opponent in all areas of the court.
Mohamed tried her best to contain the pressure of Sobhy but struggled to
lift under pressure which only gave more chances to Sobhy. The defending
champion sealed the fourth game 11-7 to successfully defend her title
and claim her third Oracle NetSuite Open win.
Amanda Sobhy celebrates her win
She had this to say after her win:
“I’m relieved, I’m happy, I’m ready to take a 12-hour sleep. But you
know, I’m just over the moon to win three times. San Fran is my lucky
place, I love this tournament, I love you guys
“I love playing in front of a home crowd. This tournament has always
been good to me, I’ve been coming here since 2015. Even though it’s a
lot of travelling it’s really fun to perform in front of you guys and
the atmosphere is incredible. I only get to come here to San Francisco
once a year and to win a third title is amazing.
“I was a bit nervous throughout it all, I hope I didn’t show it too
much. Even though I lost the first game I played the right tactics and
she just slotted some amazing shots and that’s what she’s capable of.
But you know, a few amazing shots can turn into some aggressive tins so
I had to brush it off and stick to my positive game plan. I thought we
played a really good match today and I wish her all the best in her
college squash season.”
The men’s final was a special occurrence as brothers Mohamed and Marwan
ElShorbagy went head to head for the Silver event title. The brothers
have previously played 19 times on the PSA tour with Mohamed holding a
positive 14-5 lead over his younger brother, the most notable win coming
in the 2017 PSA World Championships final in Manchester.
Marwan started the better of the two, catching his older brother
slightly off guard, and firing off quick winners to take a commanding
lead. He eventually took the opening game 11-6 and looked sharp and
focused heading into game two.
Mohamed has already captured a Platinum event title this season,
convincingly winning the Qatar Classic last month in Doha. That form was
showcased in the following game, cutting the ball severely into the
front corners and testing the movement of Marwan. After securing the
game 11-9, Mohamed stormed to a 5-0 lead in the third and wasted no time
taking a 2-1 lead by winning 11-2.
The former World No.1 looked to be in a league of his own in the fourth
game and really started to turn the screw against his brother, who was
trying his best to stay in the match. Marwan is renowned for his
fighting abilities and used his smart brand of squash to take a 7-6 lead
in the crucial fourth game to give himself a lifeline in the match.
Mohamed responded again however and moved from strength to strength to
take five of the next six points and close out the match 11-8 to score
his third Netsuite Open title and second title of the new season.
The ElShorbagy brothers embrace
“I think we both give something very special to the sport,” said Mohamed
after his win.
“It’s very unique to have two brothers playing against each other. I
think everyone loves watching us battle it out on court, I’m not sure
that we both love it too much but I think we made our parents proud
today. We played a high-quality match.
“My brother didn’t play well last season and to see him playing well
again this season and to see hi playing that well again means a lot to
me. I’m very thankful to his team and Rodney Martin for getting him back
to this and for giving him another life. It’s only the start of the
season but he’s already made two finals and I’m sure we will see him in
more this season.
“I would like to thank John [Nimick] and his team, his tournaments are
always special. All the players always feel so welcome from him and his
team and that’s why we always get great crowds every year, because of
his efforts. I already can’t wait to be at his next event in three
months’ time in New York at the Tournament of Champions.
“I’d like to thank my fitness coach back in Birmingham. Gregory Gaultier,
he has done an incredible job with me. I’m very grateful to him for
helping me win two of my first three events of the season. England
Squash, I’m very grateful for their support, they believed in me when no
one else did and I’m so grateful for that. I’d also like to thank Evan
[Goldberg], for sponsoring the event. To have someone like you
sponsoring the event means so much to the players and we’re very lucky
to have you in our sport.”
PSA World Tour attention now turns to the prestigious US Open, taking
place from The Arlen Specter Center in Philadelphia from October 8th –
15th. The PSA World Tour Platinum event will feature the world’s best
players as they battle it out for the title.

Home Favourite Sobhy Leads Top Seeds Through To Oracle
NetSuite Open Semis
USA No.1 and World No.4 Amanda Sobhy was one of eight top seeds who
progressed through to the Oracle NetSuite Open semi-finals on day three
in San Francisco as she defeated surprise quarter finalist Chan Sin Yuk
in a difficult two-game encounter.
The women’s top seed took a comfortable opening game 11-5 after finding
her length early in the game and pinning Chan deep in the back corners
to give her no opportunity to attack. The Hong Kong No.2 was on a
10-match unbeaten streak on the PSA Tour and found that form in the
following game to trouble Sobhy in the front corners. Chan’s fearless
approach in the second game earned her two game balls to equalise but
Sobhy’s experience came through to take the match and reach the semis to
keep her title defence alive.
Sobhy had this to say after her win:
“I just tried to play my strong, basic game and I knew that she was
deadly from the middle and so if I could get my length and put her under
a fast pace then hopefully that would do the trick. But she hung in
really well and she’s definitely one to look out for.
“She kind of reminds me of myself when I was younger. I think our styles
are quite similar, I was very attacking from the middle and we love to
take it short and play attacking squash. She was gutsy and she really
made me work for it so I respect the fact that she came out here and
played fearlessly.”
Sobhy’s semi-final opponent will be Canada’s Hollie Naughton who
produced a strong performance to overcome dangerous Egyptian Hana
Ramadan. Naughton, who comes into this season full of confidence, after
her Silver medal at the Commonwealth Games gave Ramadan no opportunity
to attack in the match and used her superior accuracy to score a 2-0
win.
The other women’s semi-final match will be played between the No.2 and
three seeds Joelle King and Farida Mohamed as they confidently beat
USA’s Sabrina Sobhy and Scotland’s Lisa Aitken respectively. King was
the first player to reach the final four in today’s action and wasted no
time in despatching the younger Sobhy sister, Sabrina in straight games.
King dominated from the outset and looked sharp in every aspect to win
2-0.
Joelle King & Sabrina Sobhy
Egypt’s Farida Mohamed was just as clinical, as she made light work of
Scottish No.1 Lisa Aitken to reach the semi-finals. Mohamed’s aggressive
style of play has catapulted her up the PSA rankings in recent years and
she shows no signs of slowing down. Mohamed constantly asked questions
of Aitken in all areas of the court and needed just 19 minutes to secure
the victory.
The men’s matches were also full of quality on day three In San
Francisco with the match of the day coming from No.4 seed Marwan
ElShorbagy and former British Open Champion Miguel Rodriguez. The
Colombian trailed for the majority of the opening game but managed to
string several winners together at the back end of the game to take an
important 1-0 lead in the final match of the evening.
Marwan ElShorbagy celebrates his win
ElShorbagy, who is renowned for his intelligent style of play, fought
back however and used his court craft and accurate straight line hitting
to restrict Rodriguez. The World No.9 started to put some serious work
into the legs of the Colombian and even the outrageous acrobatic
abilities of Rodriguez weren’t enough to deny the No.4 seed a place in
the final four. ElShorbagy had this to say about his win and upcoming
match.
“It was very tough. Miguel is a great player and has had a great start
to the season, beating the World No.1 in Doha so I knew how tricky he
was going to be. I thought in the first game I played quite fast which
didn’t work out too well for me so I tried to straighten up which worked
better as I felt more in control. I felt my hitting was good but it was
mostly in the mind today, I’m glad I didn’t lose my focus from the
second game and just glad I could get the win.
“We just played last week in Egypt and Diego [Elias] is a great player
and one that I really enjoy watching and tomorrow in the best of three
will be tough because in this format you always feel in survival mode.
But I hope it will be a good one for the crowd.”
No.1 seed Diego Elias displayed his trademark casual style in his match
with giant killer Aly Abou Eleinen to progress to the semi-finals. The
Peruvian didn’t have it all his own way however and was pushed hard at
times by the Egyptian who had nothing to lose in the encounter after
beating two higher ranked players (Al Tamimi & Soliman) in the previous
two rounds. But Elias was simply too good and won 2-0 in 24 minutes.
Earlier in the day, England’s Mohamed ElShorbagy recorded an eleventh
consecutive victory over India’s Saurav Ghosal to move into his fifth
Oracle NetSuite Open semi-final. ‘The Beast’ lived up to his name
throughout the entire match as his intensity and aggression reached new
levels as he pulverised the ball to the back corners to dominate the
middle of the court at all costs. Ghosal struggled to impose his
accurate, delicate game on the match and lost both games 11-6 in 34
minutes.
Mazen Hesham will be ElShorbagy’s opponent in the semi-finals, after he
came through a tricky encounter with USA No.1 Shahjahan Khan on the
all-glass court at Pier 70 in San Francisco. Hesham’s erratic style of
play was troubling the American at first with the lack of rhythm working
in the Egyptian’s favour. After losing the first game, Khan came back
fighting and with the help of the home crowd secured the second game to
force an exciting decider.
The final game was neck and neck up until 7-7, but some uncharacteristic
errors from Khan, partnered with two refereeing decisions not going his
way gave Hesham the following four points to earn him a spot in his
first NetSuite Open semi-final.
All of the semi-final action from the Oracle NetSuite Open will be
played on the all-glass court at Pier 70, San Francisco starting at
17:30 (GMT-7) and will be shown live on
SQUASHTV.

Sin Yuk & Eleinen Claim Big Wins To Gatecrash Oracle
NetSuite Open 2022 Quarter Finals
Chan Sin Yuk
Hong Kong’s Chan Sin Yuk and Egypt’s Aly Abou Eleinen scored the only
upsets in round two of the Oracle NetSuite Open 2022 to gatecrash the
PSA World Tour Silver event quarter finals, beating Olivia Clyne and
Youssef Soliman respectively.
World No.36 Chan Sin Yuk has been in impressive form heading into this
week’s event, winning her previous two events in Australia in convincing
fashion. After defeating wildcard Riya Navani in round one, Sin Yuk
continued her fine form as she came up against USA’s Olivia Clyne for a
place in the last eight. Sin Yuk wasted no time in taking the ball short
as she dominated the middle of the court and forced Clyne into several
tough movements in the front corners.
Clyne tried her best to get into the match but the accuracy of her
younger opponent was simply too good. After just 15 minutes, the
20-year-old secured her place in the biggest quarter final of her
career, winning 11-5, 11-7. She had this to say after her win:
“This is the first time I’ve made it through to a PSA Silver event
quarter final so that’s really big for me and I’m really pleased with
this result. I’ll play either Amanda [Sobhy] or Sana [Ibrahim] tomorrow
but I always watched Amanda on SQUASHTV and I love watching her play so
I’m hoping I get to play her.”
Sin Yuk’s hopes came true later in the evening as No.1 seed Amanda Sobhy
secured her place in the quarter finals after a confident 2-0 win over
Egypt’s Sana Ibrahim. Earlier in the day, No.2 seed Joelle King booked
her place in the final four as she beat Hong Kong’s Tomato Ho in
straight games to progress. King’s opponent will be USA’s Sabrina Sobhy,
who overcame talented Egyptian Zeina Mickawy in a 20-minute 2-0 to move
into her first Silver event quarter final.
The top four men’s seeds all advanced on the all-glass court at Pier 70
in San Francisco in different styles. No.3 seed, Mazen Hesham, was first
to book his place in the last eight as he overcame India’s Ramit Tandon
in a hard-fought three games with errors from Tandon at a crucial time
in the third game heavily aiding the Egyptian. Both ElShorbagy brothers
[Mohamed and Marwan] recorded business-like straight sets victories over
Mahesh Mangaonkar and Cesar Salazar, respectively, whilst top seed Diego
Elias was in sumptuous form as he cruised to victory over USA’s Faraz
Khan.
Marwan ElShorbagy in action
The play was again spread across different venues in round two with
matches taking place at the University Club, Olympic Club and Squash
Zone Club in the afternoon. Egypt’s Aly Abou Eleinen scored an upset in
round one beating Qatar’s Abdulla Mohd Al Tamimi and continued his run
in the event by taking out compatriot and No.7 seed Youssef Soliman in a
mammoth three-set match at the Olympic Club to reach the quarter finals.
Eleinen took the first game, which have been described by players as
crucial in the best of three format, by hitting his targets accurately
to the back of the court to set up attacking opportunities. Soliman
responded in the second to equalise and after a scrappy third game, it
was Eleinen who kept his concentration best to close out a nail-biting
third game 14-12.
“It feels amazing,” said Eleinen.
“I had ten good days of training before this tournament to prepare and
coming into a silver event, I didn’t feel any pressure, Its on the more
experienced guys. I just wanted to enjoy my squash and give it my best.
“I’ve actually played both Al Tamimi and Soliman before and against
Soliman, I lost a close 80-minute match and this time I just wanted to
give it my best. Given the best of three, I had to warm up well to give
myself the best chance. At 12-12 in the third game, I had to just try
and stay tough and control the controllables. Being in the quarter
finals of a Silver event is massive for me and regardless of who I play,
just want to enjoy the moment and give it my all.”
Over at the University Club, Canada’s Hollie Naughton had to dig deep to
overcome in form Malaysian Rachel Arnold to progress to the last eight,
winning 11-9 in the third game. The pair had played twice before on the
PSA World Tour with Arnold winning the most recent encounter back in
February this year. Naughton was sharp from the outset and by mixing the
pace, pinned Arnold in the back corners and attacked intelligently to
take the opening game 11-4. Despite the Malaysian equalising, Naughton
was able to maintain her focus and play the big points well to take the
final game 11-9 and advance.
Just two matches took place at the Squash Zone Club in Redwood City,
with both seeded players progressing to the next round. India’s Saurav
Ghosal overcame England’s George Parker in a three-set encounter just
shy of the hour mark. Whilst Scotland’s Lisa Aitken needed all three
games to defeat France’s Marie Stephan to advance to the quart finals.
All of the quarter final action from the Oracle NetSuite Open will be
played on the all-glass court at Pier 70, starting again at 12:00
(GMT-7) and will be shown live on
SQUASHTV.

USA No.1 Sobhy Returns to Defend Oracle NetSuite Open
Title
The draws for the 2022 Oracle NetSuite Open have been released, with
United States No.1 and defending champion Amanda Sobhy starring
alongside Peru’s Diego Elias in San Francisco between September 30 –
October 4. The prestigious tournament, which is celebrating its 10th
anniversary on the San Francisco waterfront, moves to Building 12 at
Pier 70, a restored, renovated and historic maritime building set to
become the hub of Brookfield Properties’ massive Dogpatch neighborhood
development.
Sobhy claimed the women’s title in 2021 at Embarcadero Plaza, putting in
a string of confident performances to win the title without dropping a
game. The 29-year-old will be the top seed for this year’s edition as
she aims to become the first female player to win the Oracle NetSuite
Open on three occasions.
After a bye through to the opening round of the competition, the
American will do battle with either Hong Kong’s Tsz-Wing Tong or Egypt’s
Hana Ibrahim, before possibly then facing off against national team-mate
Olivia Clyne, the tournament’s No.6 seed, in the quarter finals.
New Zealand’s Joelle King, who became the joint-most decorated squash
player in Commonwealth Games history this summer, will be the No.2 seed
for the tournament. She will begin her campaign against either Hong
Kong’s Tomato Ho or Ka Yi Lee.
Egypt’s Farida Mohamed, who took her biggest title at the RMCLUB Women’s
Open Presented by Expression Networks in Mauritius in June, and
Commonwealth Games silver medallist Hollie Naughton will make up the
rest of the top four seeds for the event.
The men’s event will be led by Elias, who is the only Peruvian player in
history to reach the world’s top five. The World No.4 will begin his
week in San Francisco against either Hong Kong’s Henry Leung or US No.1
Shahjahan Khan.
England’s Mohamed ElShorbagy will be aiming for a third Oracle NetSuite
Open crown, to tie France’s Gregory Gaultier as the most in the history
of the event, and he will begin against either American wildcard Zane
Patel or India’s Mahesh Mangaonkar in the second round.
Mohamed’s younger brother, Marwan, along with fellow Egyptian Mazen
Hesham, will be amongst the top four seeds, with Hesham scheduled to
face either Mazen Gamal or India’s Ramit Tandon in the last 16. Marwan
could face USA’s Faraz Khan or Mexico’s Cesar Salazar in the second
round.
A glass court will be erected in Pier 70 for the event, while SquashZone,
the Olympic Club and the University Club will host some of the action
from the earlier rounds of the tournament.
The tournament will use a best-of-three games scoring format up to and
including the semi-finals, before reverting to the traditional
best-of-five games scoring format for the finals.
All of the glass court action at the Oracle NetSuite Open will be
streamed live on
SQUASHTV.
