    Had the pleasure of meeting David Palmer and spending a weekend with him while he coached the Cornell squash teams at the Yale tournaments a few weeks back. Great guy.

    Great game.
    One of the big issues I have with PSA TV videos in general is that the commentators talk all the time--through the points and often about unrelated issues. It's like having someone behind you speaking through an entire movie.
    This commentator is a perfect example of how it should be done, remaining silent during the points, and keeping his comments brief and game-focused.

    Wow Willstrop was world n2 11 years ago!!, I didn´t know he has been on the top for so long!!, being such a tall guy is normal that he isn´t that fit now, but great carrer and hopefully more to come!!

    No wonder David palmer was called the marine. I remember watching the 2006 World championship final in Cairo against Gregory gauliter and I think Greg had about 8 or 9 championship balls, even when Greg was 2 games up he had about 4 championship balls then 2-1 up he had more championship balls and every time dave just kept hanging in there and it went 2 games all and Greg looked ill after them 4 games and dave came out in the 5th and absolutely destroyed Greg and what won him that world open title was his desire to keep going. As for James willstrop he is still playing professional squash at 39 years old and a former world number 1 and what an ambassador for squash he has been. These guys and all professional squash players are awesome athletes and anybody who's played squash knows exactly what I'm on about.

    More of these please! Got any Power v Nicol replays?

    I was surprised how civil Palmer was throughout. Even say at 13:45 when it's hard to believe Willstrop would ever have gotten that ball back. Maybe I've watched too much Palmer vs Power (and it's not Palmer I'd blame for the lack of civility there...)

    kind of hard to see the ball

    I miss the old squash with the traditional rackets. I remember Rodney Martin, Chris Robertson, the Khans. That was epic squash.

      Me to. I remember being glued to my TV screen watching these guys play.

    what happened to James he became so slow moving...

    • @richardnorth6988
      @richardnorth6988 6 років тому

      he has had surgery and recovered now but he's not slow.....efficient is more the word your looking for. His movement patterns have become far more refined over the years with his experience, now using his height and reach to move purposefully and using just the right amount of energy needed for his physic.

      The really tall players don't find it as easy as the smaller players to cover the court and this becomes more noticeable in the latter stages of their careers. (Mid 30s). The following players come to mind ; Gawain Briars, Stuart Davenport, James willstrop all of whom were top 4 in the world or better at one stage in their careers. David Palmer is 6:2.
