Doha: Saurav Ghosal lost to World No.1 James Willstrop in the pre-quarterfinals of the World Squash Championship. The 21 ranked Indian went down 6-11, 7-11, 2-11 in 49 minutes.
He started the match well but was no match for the Englishmen thereafter.
Earlier, Ghosal beat Egyptian Karim Abdel Gawad in second round of the Qatar PSA World Squash Championship in Doha to become the first Indian in the 36-year history of the PSA World Tour’s premier event to reach the last sixteen.
Boasting a $325,000 prize-fund, the second biggest in the sport’s history, the Qatar PSA World Championship is being hosted by Qatar for the third time – following previous stagings in 1998 and 2004 – and is being held at the Khalifa International Tennis & Squash Complex.
