Finals: Brownell and Weaver Earn Back-to-Back National Titles

Timmy Brownell and Olivia Weaver – the two top-ranked American professionals – earned back-to-back national titles at The 2025 Desai Family U.S. Women’s and S.L. Green U.S. Men’s Championships finals night Friday, June 20, at the Arlen Specter US Squash Center in Philadelphia.

The men’s final opened proceedings with top-seeded Brownell facing first-time finalist Nicholas Spizzirri. Brownell, world No. 38, held the advantage throughout the match and clinched his third career title in straight sets 11-6, 11-7, 11-8 in forty minutes.

“I’m really appreciative of all the players here this week, I think it was a great display of American squash, it’s a really exciting time for the game in the U.S. right now and we want to be pushing the world’s best,” Brownell said. “Thank you to everybody on my team. The last few months I haven’t had the best luck on the physical side, some things have gone wrong and I’ve been so happy with everybody picking me back up and getting back to 100%.”

A top-ten caliber final ensued between world No. 4 Weaver and world No. 9 and six-time U.S. champion Amanda Sobhy–just the second time Team USA’s top two women have faced each other at the National Singles.

Weaver started on the front foot taking the first game 11-5, and came back from 4-1 down in the second to go up 11-8. Sobhy surged in the third game until Weaver pulled away from 9-all to clinch her second title in thirty-five minutes.

Both Weaver and Sobhy will compete in the season-ending PSA World Tour Finals June 23-27 before officially ending their seasons. For Weaver, 2024-2025 has seen the Philadelphia native achieve cement her spot in the world’s top four for an entire season. For Sobhy, the 2024-2025 season concludes her “comeback season” from a second career Achilles injury that has seen her remarkable return into the world’s top ten this spring.

“I’m very lucky to have is just an amazing support system so many people behind me that you know every single day,” Weaver said. “We’re just chipping away every event and every day I feel like I’m always learning on the court and really trying to become a better player. I think I just approach every day like a new day and every match the opportunity to go out and improve. So I really just credit to the support system from my team that allow me to enjoy the process.”

Brownell and Weaver are the first men and women to repeat national titles in the same years since Todd Harrity and Sobhy in 2015 and 2016.
