Fantasy success for Farag

Ali has been pretty successful off court – he was voted the winner of both Fantasy tournaments that we’ve run so far – the Grasshopper Cup and the El Gouna International.

Unless he ‘does a Peter Nicol’ though, he won’t be part of the winning team for the next Fantasy tournament, the Fantasy European Teams, coming up next week …

If you’re missing seeing Ali play, here’s his ‘real’ El Gouna semi-final from last year.
