  • Numero Uno Ali Farag Lifts Qatar Classic Trophy for a Second Time Egyptian Becomes Only the Fourth Man to Win the Title Twice Tribune News Network Doha
    Mohammed Albaker dazzles on Verona to claim his first Big Tour title of the season PAGE 15 SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 8, 2020 Numero Uno Ali Farag lifts Qatar Classic trophy for a second time Egyptian becomes only the fourth man to win the title twice TRIBUNE NEWS NETWORK DOHA LIVING up to his new billing as the World No.1, Egyptian Ali Farag retained his Qa- tar Classic 2020 squash title in style as he accounted for World No.5 Paul Coll of New Zealand in the final of the PSA World Tour Platinum tourna- ment on Saturday evening. Farag, 28, dropped a game but had no difficulty in van- quishing Coll 11-8, 6-11, 11-9, 11-9 in 61 minutes to lift his 21st PSA title at the Khalifa In- ternational Tennis & Squash Complex. The triumph also saw Far- ag extend his domination over Coll to 13 matches. When I was younger, I used to watch the Qatar Classic and see all the great names of our sport lifting that trophy and I could only imagine standing there one day. To do it twice is an amazing feeling. Al Farag HE Sheikh Joaan bin Hamad Al Thani, President, Qatar Olympic Committee and Nasser Al Khelaifi, President of Qatar Tennis, Squash and Badminton Federation, applaud as Ali Farag lifts the Qatar Classic trophy soon after the prize distribution at the Khalifa International Tennis & Squash Complex on Saturday.

  • Is England's Golden Age Nearly Over?
    FEATURE Is England’s golden age nearly over? Richard Eaton investigates whether England will be able to continue their position as one of squash’s superpowers when the current crop of world-class players retire Massaro is 29, Alison Waters 29 and Jenny Duncalf 30. Age affects people differently, so it would be silly to downplay any of them. But Matthew's words reverberate. They won't be here for ever. Moreover, Emily Whitlock, aged 19 and just outside the world's top 20, looks like the only prospect good enough to reach the top. Why, with so much Lottery funding, do England not have many potential replacements? Egypt have. Other questions are asked about England's system. Is it flexible enough to accommodate outsiders? Has it adversely affected the coaching market? Does it put enough resources into talent identification? Criticism can be helpful, but it can also be a hindrance to a governing body trying to cope with a changing world. They need to stay clear about their goals and methods, and maintain faith through setbacks. Maintaining morale thus becomes crucial. England Squash and Racketball (ESR) are operating amidst fewer clubs, fewer participants, fewer coaches and significantly fewer talented young players, particularly women, than 20 years ago. This is not easy. Nevertheless, they still have the world's best system,according to Britain's Nick Matthew first male world champion, Peter Nicol. “It was brilliant,” he said. He even abandoned his Scottish squash-playing loyalties to join it. Without that, he could not have extended his reign as world no.1 to a remarkable 60 months.

  • Weaponising 280 Characters What 200,000 Tweets and 4,000 Bots Tell Us About State of Twitter in Sri Lanka
    Weaponising 280 characters What 200,000 tweets and 4,000 bots tell us about state of Twitter in Sri Lanka Sanjana Hattotuwa, Yudhanjaya Wijeratne and Raymond Serrato Weaponising 280 characters What 200,000 tweets and 4,000 bots tell us about state of Twitter in Sri Lanka by Sanjana Hattotuwa, Yudhanjaya Wijeratne and Raymond Serrato 21 April 2018 1 Summary Starting late March, Groundviews and other Twitter users in Sri Lanka began noticing a tsunami of Twitter accounts with no bios, no tweets and the default profile picture following them. Immediately evident were interesting characteristics, not unlike the bots and fake followers anchored to account of Namal Rajapaksa. The bots had Sinhala, Muslim and Tamil sounding names. Many of the profiles were the default Twitter profile image, but many of the female accounts had photos lifted from public profiles of other individuals. Given the scale and scope of the infestation, Groundviews, for the first time in the Sri Lankan Twittersphere, took the step of making public its block list, which other users could import. Even this measure though was not enough to address the high frequency with which new, fake accounts were being created, attaching themselves to prominent Twitter users in Sri Lanka. Preliminary analysis of 1,262 accounts, a subset of the larger dataset we were working with, indicated that the majority of suspicious accounts following Twitter users were bots. A visualisation of the number of accounts targeted by the bots revealed that leading diplomats, Ambassadors based in Sri Lanka, the official accounts of diplomatic missions, leading local politicians, the former President of the Maldives, media institutions, civil society organisations and initiatives, leading journalists, cricketers and other individuals were amongst those who had large bot numbers of bot followers.
