Karim Abdel Gawad
“It’s my first time in Scotland and I’ve really enjoyed it. The club, the crowd, the court are all great, and the prize money helps too! It would be great to see a big PSA event come to Scotland, but hopefully I’ll be back to defend my title next year anyway.”

“Tough, and tough again! I flew to London, played a PSL match in Birmingham, flew to Scotland for a five setter yesterday, I didn’t expect that I’d be able to last long against Joel today, but I was happy with my squash and my performance.

“The crowd here are beautiful, and the great thing about this court is that you feel like you’re playing in the middle of the crowd. Looking forward to playing the final on it tomorrow.”
