Any publicity is good publicity, right??
When the New York Times talks about squash, it’s straight to the point! Blimey.

“Is the World’s Best Squash Player Testing the Rules,
or Is He Cheating?

Even Mostafa Asal’s coach admits his player sometimes goes too far. But an anonymous YouTuber is crying foul play, with videos to make the point /…/ the same argument, over and over: that 24-year-old Mostafa Asal, currently the No. 1 ranked player and reigning world champion, is a cheater.

Maybe that’s too harsh. Foul play might be more apt. Either way, the videos have landed with a concussive thud in the world of squash, which wrapped up its season this week in Toronto.

Squash has been gaining momentum in recent years. The Professional Squash Association has signed some lucrative sponsorship deals, including one with Mark Walter, a Chicago billionaire and an owner of the Los Angeles Dodgers and Chelsea F.C. Terms were not disclosed, but it’s reportedly one reason that total prize money this year for men’s and women’s tournaments exceeded $10.5 million, a record sum.

The sport will make its debut at the 2028 Olympic Games in Los Angeles.

It will have to fix its Asal problem before that.”
