When John White was in his prime, it's incredible how early he took the ball. Watch the video and see how infrequently he went to the back of the court.
They only changed it to 11 so that players would take more chances as the game can go so quickly. Basically they did it so it was more enjoyable to watch :/
This is one of the best matches I've seen. It is pure no none-sense squash. I enjoy it every time. Thanks for posting it. By the way if you play the game at this pace you will know how fast the game is.

God, what an incredibly dumb sport. Apparently there's a fine line between badminton and squash. I mean look...a couple of dweebs who look like they crawled out from under a rock and apparently suffer form testosterone deficiency prancing around flicking their wrists. They have neither grace nor power. Total androgenoids. Certainly there shouldn't be men's and women's squash. The squash in my kitchen is far more useful. At least it tastes good...especially grilled. Yum!
How about you grow a pair and let these people enjoy their sport? BTW fastest shot ever in badminton passed the 200 mph mark. Whats the fastest football ever thrown or fastest baseball hit? I guess those sports are SLOWER compared to badminton.
How about actually stepping into a court ? You sure didn't like sex when you were 6, how come you like it now. Don't turn down things before you know what they are :)
@mdenero Well let's see you go on court and do what they're doing! Squash players aren't meant to be big and muscular, they need a specific physique to endure such movements. Very ignorant...
He became the world number 1 after making the final of this tournament where he eventually lost to Peter Nicol, but yeah this was begining of his reign as the world's no. 1
wow this is a big match i would like the kids that are just starting to play to see it

Jimbo moves great for a big guy. More like a Del Potro in movement rather than an Isner.

Just wierd how they make the court look smaller but the tin is like 2-3 inches lower than original
DrCooler1000 2 years ago
I doubt that the tin should be 2-3 inches lower.... it would completely change the game. I can't believe professionals would accept that.

Look at Willstrop's racquet at 0:55, weird isnt it?

the racquets do bend slightly, if its didn't then it would just snap.
