Marwan ElShorbagy Reaches Top Three in Men’s May World
Rankings
Bristol-based Egyptian Marwan ElShorbagy has today overtaken France’s
Gregory Gaultier to reach a career-high World No.3 ranking and complete
the first all-Egyptian presence amongst the world’s top three positions
on the men's tour since April 2009.
The 24-year-old defeated World No.2 Ali Farag last week to lift his
maiden World Series title at the El Gouna International to join Farag
and older brother Mohamed - the current World No.1 - inside the world’s
top three as they become the first brothers to reside in the top three
at the same time since Brett and Rodney Martin in May 1994.
Gaultier’s drop down to No.4 marks his lowest ranking since April 2013
and he sits a place ahead of Tarek Momen, who retains his place inside
the top five.
Germany’s Simon Rösner stays at No.6 ahead of 2016 World Champion Karim
Abdel Gawad, three-time World Champion Ramy Ashour, Egypt’s Mohamed
Abouelghar and New Zealand’s Paul Coll, who complete the top 10.
Ahead of what could be his final month in professional squash, England’s
Nick Matthew - the 37-year-old veteran who will retire at the end of
this season - moves up to No.11, while Peru’s Diego Elias and Saurav
Ghosal of India take the next two spots inside the top 15.
Colombia’s Miguel Angel Rodriguez moves up two places to No.14 - his
highest ranking in 14 months - with Commonwealth Games gold medalist
James Willstrop dropping a place to No.15.
Australia’s Ryan Cuskelly falls to No.16, while Egypt’s Omar Mosaad
moves up four places to No.17, which is his highest ranking since March
2015.
Switzerland’s Nicolas Mueller and England’s Daryl Selby sit at No.18 and
No.19, respectively, while Hong Kong’s Max Lee ends a nine-month hiatus
from the top 20 to take the final spot inside it.
