Ali Farag & Nour El Sherbini retain PSA World Championship titles in Chicago

Ali Farag and Nour El Sherbini retained their PSA World Squash Championship titles with stunning victories over fellow Egyptians Karim Abdel Gawad and Nouran Gohar at the spectacular Union Station venue in Chicago, USA.

Farag was in dominate form throughout the championships and successfully defended his title with a 44-minute 12-10 11-6 11-6 victory over former World Champion Karim Abdel Gawad, so becoming only the second Egyptian after Amr Shabana to claim four World Championship trophy.

The four-time champion put on a masterful display of precision and agility throughout the tournament, dominating his opponents with his expert footwork and strategic shot-making In the final match.

Farag’s untroubled route to the final featured impressive wins over Ramit Tandon of India, Englishmen Adrian Waller and Nathan Lake, Paul Coll of New Zealand and topside Mostafa Asal.

In contrast, the 2016 Champion Gawad, just seven months after being consigned to a wheelchair as he received treatment for a heel injury, battled past World No.1 Diego Elias and World No.2 Mohamed ElShorbagy enroute to his second World Championship final. The 31-year-old former champion started the final magnificently but was unable to convert a 9-5 lead in the opening game which Farag eventually won on a tiebreak before closing-out an unexpiated straight-games victory.

The women’s final saw Nour El Sherbini and Noran Gohar face each other for the third consecutive time on the PSA World Tour, with the defending champion winning their previous two title contests to reclaim the World No.1 ranking from his fiercest rival.

El Sherbini claimed a stunning 11-6 11-4 12-10 victory to win her fifth consecutive World Championship crown and is just now just one title behind record 8-time Champion Nicol David of Malaysia.
