The Atlanta
Masters was a total sell out and not event a seat was
available for the final between the current world number 1 Amr
Shabana from Egypt against the former world number one John
White from Scotland.
With 130 packed
squash enthusiasts they were in for a treat and a treat was
just what they got from these two world class players. With
more room it still would have been sold out and several players
had to be turned away at the door for last minute tickets. With
an open bar and a $2000 buffet from Atlanta Creative Events
the crowd had everything was they asked for. Squash was at its
finest with both players entertaining the crowd with shots and
jokes. The 90 min game was one of the best I have ever seen
and one can see why Amr is the number 1 player in the world.
Amr squeezed 12-10 in the fifith and the crowd were amazed how
athletic and flexible these players are. With over 20 juniors
in the front row both players signed shirts, hats and posed
for pictures of their future stars to be. After the game both
players took the time to answer any questions from the crowd.
Everyone was happy with their performance and I am sure we will
see a lot more from these players.
