New Delhi, April 1
Saurav Ghosal became the first Indian male squash player to enter the top-10 in the latest PSA world rankings.
Two Indian women —Joshna Chinappa and Dipika Pallikal — had earlier reached the top-10 in the world rankings.
Riding on his recent performances, Ghosal has moved up two places to a career-high ranking of 10. Ghosal made it to the quarterfinals of the 2018-2019 PSA World Championships in Chicago, USA, for the first time in his career. He was also a quarterfinalist at the prestigious Grasshopper Cup in Zurich. The 32-year-old from Kolkata has changed his training regimen under coach David Palmer recently. Since the summer of 2018, he has had a great run of success beginning with the CIB Blackball Squash Open at Egypt in December.
Sandhu 78th
Mohali player Harinder Pal Sandhu is currently placed 78th in the rankings chart. The 29-year-old had the highest world ranking at the 47 spot in April 2018. Egypt’s world champion Ali Farag, meanwhile, maintains his position at the top of the ladder.
In the women’s rankings, Joshna continued to be the best-ranked Indian, moving up to the 15th position. — PTI
