Egyptians Dominate In World Championship In Zurich

Players from 16 nations - and all five continents - will contest the fifth round of the World Junior Men's Squash Championship in Zurich after hard-fought action in the biennial World Squash Federation championship being staged for the first time in Switzerland.

Egypt lead the way with seven teenagers through to the last 32, led by second seed Mohamed El Shorbagy who beat the Czech Republic number one Roman Svec 9-2, 9-6, 9-4.  The UK-based 17-year-old from Alexandria now faces unseeded South African Reinhold Hergeth for a place in the last 16.

Ahmed El Mehelmy, also 17 and from Alexandria, claimed a surprise place in the fifth round after upsetting Germany's 17/32 seed Florian Silbernagl 9-7, 4-9, 9-5, 9-6 in 53 minutes.

Event favourite Aamir Atlas Khan leads a four-man group of Pakistanis through to the last 32 round.  The 17-year-old from Peshawar needed just 12 minutes to despatch Denmark's Philip Tran 9-1, 9-0, 9-0 and now faces Lucas Serme, an unseeded Frenchman who battled 89 minutes to overcome Canadian seed Kelly Shannon 9-7, 4-9, 8-10, 9-2, 9-3.

Swiss interest is being exclusively led by local hero Nicolas Mueller, the No3 seed who earned his place in the fifth round after beating Guatemala's Roberto Rodriguez 9-0, 9-2, 9-0.  The former European Junior champion from Hirzel, near Zurich, now takes on unseeded German Rudi Rohrmuller, who beat French seed Lucas Vauzelle 9-10, 9-7, 9-6, 4-9, 9-4 in a 93-minute marathon.

But the longest victory of the day was earned by Malaysian Ivan Yuen.  The 17-year-old 9/16 seed from Selangor took 112 minutes to see off Pakistan's Danish Atlas Khan 10-8, 9-4, 7-9, 9-1 in the third round - then battled for a further 73 minutes later in the day to overcome German Norman Junge 9-3, 9-10, 9-5, 9-5 to earn a place in the fifth round.

Egypt are seeded to retain their title in the 2008 World Junior Men's Team Squash Championship in Switzerland according to the interim seedings revealed today (Friday) by the World Squash Federation.

A record 32 nations - including the Cayman Islands, China, Ecuador and Guatemala for the first time - will contest the biennial championships in Zurich from 2-7 August, following the World Junior Men's Individual Championship, which runs from 28 July to 1 August. 

The final seeding order will be decided on semi-finals day of the Individual Championship after the final squad submissions are lodged that day - and thereafter the draw will be made.

The young Egyptian squad will be led by Mohamed El Shorbagy, the 17-year-old world No62 from Alexandria.  But Egypt will undoubtedly face tough opposition from Pakistan, winners of the title in 2002 and 2004 and provisionally named as second seeds in 2008.

Pakistan will be led by Aamir Atlas Khan, the world No23 from Peshawar who celebrates his 18th birthday during the individual championships - in which he has been nominated as top seed.

England, winners of the title three successive times between 1996 and 2000, are the third seeds, while Malaysia are the No4 seeds.
