Amina Elwahy Achieves Top World Ranking
Amina El-Guindi, an Egyptian player, became the youngest female squash player to top the global women's ranking at the age of 19 years and two months, surpassing the record set by a New Zealander who achieved it at 20 years and two months in 1984. El-Guindi accomplished this milestone after winning the Qatar Classic title against her compatriot Hania El Hammami in a match that lasted 107 minutes, with a decisive final game score of 12-10. This victory increased her professional titles to 15 and made her the youngest player to win the world title since the ranking system was introduced, surpassing her previous record as the youngest women’s world champion in history at 18 years and 10 months. Notably, her rise carries particular significance as squash is close to being included in the Los Angeles 2028 Olympics, and she is eager to defend her title and secure her spot in the Games.
