    • @@Fuzcapp the problem is that it’s a very non beginner friendly sport. Some of the people who play squash are complete assholes and don’t like new players in their sport. The barrier to the top level is so hard that it’s almost not worth trying, someone needs to make Squash a more friendly and accessible sport before it gains popularity.

  • thank you psa squash tv. that was nice to watch. Of all current players, I reckon Farag is best deserved to become next number one, always a gentleman but also obviously very talented and always shows good sportsmanship. I have a feeling he's probably the most liked player on the tour amongst his peers. If El Tayeb and him have a child, imagine the potential.

  • This ball moves a lot slower than a racquetball.

    @blockaderunner@blockaderunner6 жыл бұрын

    • the difference is that a racquetball ball is extremely bouncy, so the court needs to be bigger, in order to make it harder for players to get it. In squash the ball dies very quickly, so, you need to be very fast to get it. In any case, if you want the fastest ball of any racquet sports, that would be badminton (with a record of 206mph). That of racquetball is 191mph, on squash 176mph, and on tennis 156mph. That does not make one sport better/worse than any other though, court size and net/tin height is adjusted accordingly to make the sport push athletes to the limit. So, ball speed is not a very meaningful comparison :)

The squash nowadays isn’t measured, they just blitz it around court. These guys wouldn’t live with the likes of Jansher Khan etc. Good players obviously but definitely not the best I’ve seen.
