Squash Player Bids Farewall to Four of the Greats

Squash Player pays tribute to four of the great professionals who have bowed out this season in the final issue of the 2018/19 campaign.

The retirements of eight-time world champion Nicol David, triple world champion Ramy Ashour, double British Open winner Laura Massaro and former world no.2 Jenny Duncalf are covered comprehensively by our team of top writers.

In addition, Ashour's innovative new scoring system is reviewed by Ashley Davies and Rod Gilmour looks at how squash is at the forefront of the University of Warwick's new £36million Sports Hub.

World no.2 Mohamed ElShorbagy talks about his game to Ian McKenzie, who also reviews the British Open, while former world no.1 James Willstrop reveals his recovery secrets from a major hip operation to physio Phil Newton.

Jonny Harford explains to Mike Dale why Wycliffe School are so successful and Simon Redfern interviews the two new European junior champions - Czech Viktor Byrtus and Poland's Karina Tyma.

In an exclusive story on our News page, the World Squash Federation accuses the International Olympic Committee of "closing off" the Games to new sports.

All the regular sections are there as well, including Hall of Fame, On and Off Court, Tactics, Drew's Diagnosis, Looking Forward, Calendar and Gallery, which this time is provided by Squash Stories founder Jamie Maddox.
