Top seeds
Marwan El Shorbagy and Nour El Sherbini celebrated a notable Egyptian
double in Doha by becoming world junior squash champions for the second
time.
El
Shorbagy winning the men's title at the Doha WSF World Junior
Championships to retain the trophy he won for the first time last year,
and El Sherbini, in her third final in four years, reclaiming the U19
crown she first won in 2009 aged just 13.
It was bad
day for India as Mahesh lost the 90 minutes well played match against
Mohamed Abouelghar of Egypt in the quarter finals and it turned out to be
the longest, closest and best of the tournament so far which Mahesh lost.
Mohamed
came from two-nil down, saving two match balls in the process, to beat
India’s Mahesh Mangaonkar in an incredibly tense match which, as the
saying goes, no-one deserved to lose.
