Men's March Rankings
El Tayeb Makes it an All-Egyptian Top Three in
Rankings
The PSA Women’s World Rankings for March will feature an all-Egyptian
top three after Nour El Tayeb moved up a spot to sit behind compatriots
Raneem El Welily and Nour El Sherbini.
El Tayeb had dropped down to No.4 last month after being overtaken by
New Zealand’s Joelle King, but the 25-year-old has reclaimed her place
amongst the top three once again on the same day that husband Ali Farag
has become the men’s World No.1.
Her fellow Egyptian, Raneem El Welily, celebrates her fourth month at
the summit of the women’s rankings. El Tayeb and El Welily will go
head-to-head in the semi-finals of the PSA World Championships presented
by the Walter Family tonight as they do battle in Chicago’s Union
Station.
Nour El Sherbini stays at No.2 and the 23-year-old plays Camille Serme
in the night’s other women’s semi-final, with the French No.1 leap-frogging
New Zealand's Joelle King to rank No.4.
England’s Sarah-Jane Perry stays at No.6 and is followed by compatriot
Laura Massaro, while Egypt’s Nouran Gohar retains her No.8 ranking ahead
of Alison Waters and Wales’ Tesni Evans, who moves back into the top 10
at the expense of United States No.1 Amanda Sobhy.
Sobhy drops three spots to No.13 - meaning she is overtaken by Hong
Kong’s Annie Au and Egypt’s Salma Hany, with the latter reaching a
career-high ranking of No.12.
England’s Victoria Lust moves up a place to No.14, while Egypt’s Hania
El Hammamy rises three places to a career-high No.15 ranking.
India’s Joshna Chinappa drops two places to No.16 and is followed by
Egypt’s Yathreb Adel (No.17), Hong Kong’s Joey Chan (No.18), America’s
Olivia Blatchford Clyne and England’s Emily Whitlock.
