Re: Saurav Ghoshal thread - PB WR # 10 in Apr 2019
Sourav Ghosal has announced his retirement. He was definitely India's greatest ever male squash player.

Re: FIDE Candidates 2024
This event bodes well for the future of Indian chess. A world champion after Anand is a distinct possibility now. In fact rating difference of Gukesh and Dirren is not much so he has a good chance.

Re: The Slam titlists

Also runner up in 1996- US Open over 35 with Tim Wilkinson 2000- Wimbledon over 45 wit...

I didn't realise Leander was in the top 100 only for 36 weeks. Always thought it was more.

Re: Roland Garros Claycourt Run-Up Tournaments 2024
There have been great days when our heroes defeated people. But, I can't remember back to back three top-65 wins. When was the last time? Well, in *modern* and *human* history, of course. Last time was way back in Indian Wells 2011 by Somdev- Mannarino, Baghdatis and Malisse before going down to Na...

Re: What tips and techniques would you offer to a beginner player?
Is it better to use a 16x19 racket or an 18x20 racket? Any recommendations for either of these? I use a Babolat Pure Strike 18x20 racket. While I love it I find it a little heavy.
