Marche Reaches Joint Career-High Ranking
France’s Gregoire Marche has risen two spots to a joint career-high
ranking of No.16 after the PSA Men’s World Rankings for July were
released today.
The 29-year-old from Aix en Provence closed out his season by winning
the 5R Montpellier Metropole Open last month, taking the title without
dropping a single game throughout the event, while he got the better of
England’s former World No.1 James Willstrop in the final.
Marche moves up two spots from No.18, while Willstrop moves up a spot
from No.19 to take the Frenchman’s place.
Egypt’s Ali Farag has seen out the season as the World No.1, enjoying
his fifth successive month atop the World Rankings. He leads an
unchanged top five, including compatriots Mohamed ElShorbagy (No.2),
Tarek Momen (No.3), Karim Abdel Gawad (No.4) and Germany’s Simon Rösner.
The rest of the top 10 is also unchanged as New Zealand’s Paul Coll
(No.6), Egypt’s Mohamed Abouelghar (No.7), Peru’s Diego Elias (No.8),
Colombia’s Miguel Rodriguez (No.9) and India’s Saurav Ghosal (No.10)
retain their places.
Marwan ElShorbagy (No.11), Omar Mosaad (No.12), Joel Makin (No.13),
Zahed Salem (No.14) and Fares Dessouky (No.15) also see their rankings
stay the same.
English duo Declan James and Daryl Selby drop to No.17 and No.19,
respectively, while Australia’s Ryan Cuskelly closes out the top 20.
