ASP squashmedia .com.au LARKIN CLAIMS SA OPEN Josh Larkin claimed the 2018 South Australian Open with a strong 3-0 victory over Rhys Dowling in July. Whilst the match was tight Dowling would have been feeling the effects of a tough semi final against Enzo Corigliano (France) which went for 62 minutes. That match up was extremely tight and required Dowling to fight back from 1-2 down. Larkin got off to a slow start in his first round match against sentimental favourite Mike Corren but once he hit top gear it was all over for the “Moose”! He then beat Alex Eustace to advance to the semi final where he eliminated qualifier Tomotaka Endo from Japan.

ASP squashmedia .com.au Squash Media would like to congratulate Cameron, David, Donna, Rachael and Zac on their awesome achievements GREEN & GOLD at the 2018 Commonwealth Games. To David Palmer and Rachael Grinham ... once again thank you for so many wonderful memories over 20 years at the CG. David Palmer has now won 3 Gold, 2 Silver and 4 Bronze Medals from 6 Games (in actual fact it is 9 medals from 5 Games because he didn’t win a medal at his first Games appearance). I’m proud to say I was in the audience to witness your 9th medal ... GOLD! Rachael Grinham has now won 2G, 2S and 4B from 5 Games. Another fantastic record of achievement. Winning medals at the Commonwealth Games is a wonderful achievement but as 41 year olds ... well that is simply incredible! Both players may have lost a little speed but their shots and tactics are still awesome Congratulations & thank you Refs! Steve Walton put it best “I thought they did a sensational job because the pressure is immense. The amount of information that they have to manage now is quite extreme particularly when you are the main ref in centre court and you have ear pieces, iPads, 2 competitive players and you are seated right amongst the spectators that groan every time a decision goes against their player. The refs are also competing to referee in the big matches and they have their own behind the scenes challenges to manage also.” ASP squashmedia .com.au to watch.

  • Cuskelly Reaches Last 16 of PSA World Championships ASP Squashmedia .Com.Au a NEW DIRECTION the ASP Newsletter Has Moved to a Quarterly Edition
    ASP CONGRATULATIONS ASP Cuskelly Reaches Last 16 of PSA World Championships ASP squashmedia .com.au A NEW DIRECTION The ASP Newsletter has moved to a Quarterly Edition. Sadly, there isn’t sufficient “Aussie” action to warrant a monthly publication. However, when the activity increases the publication will move back to being published monthly. Without sounding negative it is very hard to get excited about the Australian Squash Tour for 2019. Events are few and far between and there are too many CLOSED events. Some clubs/centres have simply not announced their event for 2019 ... please do so ASAP. It is alarming from this perspective ... players will now be forced to go overseas to chase world ranking points and competition. It’s now going to be an even slower climb up the ladder if you want to be a professional squash player based in Australia. Taking out closed events which attract minimal PSA points, so far the calendar for men is offering just 9 events! There are 7 x C5, one C10 and a C20 event (congratulations to the organisers of the Squash Melbourne event who are now offering an event with prizemoney greater than the Australian Open). For the women it is even worse 6 events! 4 x C5 and 2 x C10 events. Besides sponsorship another impact on whether a promoter decides to run an event or not is the currency exchange. Prizemoney is given out in US Dollars. Currently, the Aussie Dollar is low in comparison to the USD so there is an increased financial risk for promoters.

Matt Hopkin 2016 The Australian Squash Player Annual has been created and compiled by Kim Schramm for Squash Media. 2016 was a year to celebrate. Whilst our athletes didn’t win World Championships they performed well on the PSA World Tour. They collectively won 18 PSA Titles (compared to 13 in 2015 and 17 in 2014). One performance that stood out as being absolutely superb wasn’t a winning one. It was that of Cameron Pilley reaching the final of the PSA World Series. Just getting into the draw is tough enough! One has to perform consistently over 7 World Series events: US Open, Qatar Classic, Hong Kong Open, Tournament of Champions, Windy City Open, British Open and the El Gouna International. Players are awarded points based on their result at each World Series event: Winner 100 points, Runner Up 65, Semi Finalist 40, Quarter Finalist 25, 2nd Round 15 and 1st Round 10. The Top 8 qualifiers were Mohamed El Shorbagy 640 points, Greg Gaultier 335, Nick Matthew 225, Omar Mosaad 220, Miguel Ángel Rodríguez 175, Simon Rosner 155, Mathieu Castagnet 150 and Cameron Pilley 130. Pilley hit a “purple patch of form” and reached the final. Despite losing the final to Greg Gaultier, Pilley was at his absolute best beating World #1 Mohamed El Shorbagy in the semi final.
