WOMEN'S NOVEMBER RANKINGS
Gohar Claims Career-High No.3 Spot in Women’s
November Rankings
The November PSA Women’s World Rankings have seen World Junior
Champion Nouran Gohar break into the world’s top three for the first
time in her career as the 19-year-old continues to go from strength
to strength on the PSA World Tour.
Cairo-born Gohar made a stunning start to the season after capturing
a maiden World Series title at the Hong Kong Open and, despite
bowing out of the U.S. Open at the quarter-final stage last month,
she becomes the third Egyptian female in history to reach the top
three.
Her compatriot, Nour El Sherbini, holds on to top spot, while
England’s Laura Massaro sits behind her at No.2. Al Ahram Open
winner Raneem El Welily moves up a spot to No.4, overtaking
Malaysia’s eight-time World Champion Nicol David, who caps off the
top five.
Camille Serme’s title-winning exploits at the U.S. Open sees her
switch places with United States No.1 Amanda Sobhy to leave the pair
residing at No.6 and No.7, respectively, with Omeya Abdel Kawy,
Joelle King and Alison Waters rounding out the top ten, the latter
moving up four places after reaching the Carol Weymuller Open final.
Outside the top 10, England’s Emily Whitlock has claimed a spot at a
career-best No.14 ranking, while Nour El Tayeb falls out of the top
15 to No.16. Jenny Duncalf, Rachael Grinham and Joey Chan take the
last three spots in the top 20
