SQUASH: Full Match – 2012 PSA World Championship Final – Ashour v Elshorbagy

whats wrong with Ramy(down with injury)…anybody knows abt his injury??

Thanks for posting this! starts at around 00:03:09 if you're in a rush to watch the match start 🙂

Extraordinary squash! Perhaps the greatest match I've ever viewed, live or recorded. Classy sportsmanship, excellent commentating, top notch refereeing. Should be exhibit A for making the case to sanction squash as an Olympic event.

That rally at 9-9, on 1:04:15! Dropshots galore, one flat on the ground and one playing the ball from between the legs!

1:04:20 enjoy some talent :))

Why do the players often reach up and touch the higher parts of the court in between points?

Great match!!

What equivalent squash ball are they using? I play with a double yellow dot (very occasionally a single yellow) and when I play the ball never sits up as nicely as is does in this game. Get so many dead balls and the ball never seems to pop up off the back wall like it does in this video.. My theory is the court we play on (wood floor) isn't good quality. Does this make sense?

what racket is ashour playing with?

Unbelievable match

The best rally!  1:04:20 – 1:05:15

We don't only have a Squash Champ.. Check out OSANARASHI our great Sumo " Sand Storm"!!!

"Both players using the front wall". What else would they be using?

1:20:40 how come this is a let ball , blind referee 

1:20:40 made Ashur angry and that's why he punished El Shorbagy and the referee with an amazing point

1:23:30 El shorbagy best dominating point over Ashur

Every time I watch these clips, I want to be playing squash! Best game in the world!

37:00 Incredible retreival from Ashour, and then he wins the rally.  🙂  Awesome.

Several weak calls in that match.  For example…Yes Let to ElSho at 8-9 in 5th game.  Very clear Stroke should have been the call.  Ref let Ashour block endlessly in the 5th game and did not penalize him for minimal effort and not taking direct path to the ball several times, rewarding Ramy with too many Let calls in the 5th.  And of course Ramy should have been given a Stroke to win the match near the end.  But by then the Ref had abdicated all responsibility for making rational calls.

This is the most exquisite squash i've seen in many years

Cant they just trip the other player?

SQUASH NEEDS TO BE AT THE OLYMPICS 

مباراة جميلة

allahu akbar

Sorry I'm quite new to squash, why's the point at 1:29:07 given to Ashour when Elshorbagy was able to retrieve it?

At 1:11:00 ashour gets a stroke? Someone please explain?? I'm new to squash.

Why does ashour get a stroke at 1:11:00??

What exactly happened at 12:11?

Let at 30:52? Swing prevention and no clearing effort by Ashour = Stroke to El Shorbagy who had to push Ashour out of his way.

It feels so much different to watch this match as an Egyptian <3

The prince after Ashour wins who leaves the match, I bet that guy lost a bunch of money aha

fantastic

let let let let let…..grab some balls ref

In fairness, what this video doesn't show is Shorbagy was near death the night before against Willstrop.

Love that he speaks the local tongue, rather than pander in English. And I'm a native English speaker.

Why do they use white balls

1:03–1:05

Lads I'm unreal get with it
