  • @nahamsharc Strategy for what ? Do wins count ? Who won most ? Jahangir Khan 10 consecutive British Opens, 555 consecutive matches won. Was this achieved without any strategy ?

  • @BubblesPothowari that's just stressing my point that you're concerned more with records than strategy, tactics, and the finer aspects of squash. There's nothing wrong with it, but accept what your priorities are.

  • @nahamsharc Have you heard of an opening rally of 104 shots that ends in a let in a world open ? Who were those champs ?

  • @BubblesPothowari Sounds to me that your only concern with squash seems to be with records, and not the intricate aspects involved in squash. Before you fire away at your keyboard telling me that you're some squash champion of some unrecognized intramural, it is not always necessary to play the game to have a scholarly knowledge of it. For example, Harsha bhogle, never played professionally, but understands the deep aspects of the game better than any commentator alive.

  • palmer, epitome of consistency...

  • @clareheneghan You would have to compare Power with McEnroe. Both players were the best shotmakers in their respective games. They had the ability to create shots that no one else could, including Jansher or Federer. But their games were not solid enough to sustain it for a long period of time. But the McEnroe of 1984 and the Power of 2002 would have defeated all of the all-time greats.

  • @321roomi321 stop getting all hot and bothered. relative to their era, the khans were the best, but to say they were the most skilfull ever is unjustifiable. o well, u probably dont know much about squash. its the evolution of sport. players nowadays are better than those during the khans days. live with it.

  • Wayne Gretzky's records will never be broken, but it doesn't mean he was better than the players of today. I doubt he would score 30 goals in todays game. I don't think Jansher would dominate now like he did in his prime, there is far more talent in the game now. I just think it is the evolution of sport.  Athletes in 20 years will be better than they are today.

  • @321roomi321 you should play a game against these guys then

  • I'm not arguing with his titles. They are exceptional, but he was playing in a time where there opponents weren't as strong as today and overall the top level was not as tough as it is today. Jansher will always be number one but if he was playing today it could well have been a different story. Sorry to burst your idealistic bubble :/
