I'll try to explain the rules for you. When you serve you must serve above the middle line into the other side of the court from the service box. After that you only have to hit the ball above the bottom line and below the top line. Players take turns to hit the ball and the ball has to hit the front wall but it can hit one of the other walls first. The ball can only touch the floor once before you hit it and after that it can't touch the floor untill it touches the front wall. I hope this helps
zappedthegamer I’m guessing you play but remember if you block your opponents racquet when he goes to hit it, it’s a let and you replay the point and if you hit the ball with your body, you lose the point.
I have played, coached and refereed Squash for around 50 years (yep, I'm an old fart). In that time, I have had the pleasure of watching many of the greats playing live: Geoff Hunt, Jonah Barrington, Rod Martin and Rod Eyles and the imperious Jansher Khan (but sadly, not Jehangir). Statistically, Jansher and Jehangir are clearly the GOATS ('greatest of all time') of Squash -- followed closely by Hunt, Barrington, Hashim and a few others -- but for me, despite his smaller trophy cabinet (probably attributable to his chronic hamstring problem), Ramy Ashour is probably, in absolute terms, the best player ever (despite me not seeing him play live). Jehangir and Jansher had unbelievable playing and retrieving skills, but Ramy also has those skills, and an additional very important skill -- he sees the ball *very* early and volleys much more than they did (they seemed content to pick many balls off the back wall). Unfortunately, we can't really compare players from different eras properly, but for me Ramy is the GOAT -- even if you disagree with that, you might agree he is the most exciting and entertaining player -- and a great sportsman! BTW -- I'm from Australia, so no rose-coloured glasses here!
Rackets were indeed heavier in the 1980s during Jehangir's reign (160-180 gms?) -- but, as I recall, by the 90s (Jansher's reign) rackets were of similar weights to the typical rackets used by professionals today (125-135) But I add that Ramy has anticipation and volleying skills that are a class above all of his contemporaries (e.g. watch El Shorbagy play mostly ground strokes unless the ball is loose -- whereas Ramy is on the volley-attack at every opportunity)
i could agree you if the great khans were placed in same situation or ramy in that era. Hashim and roshan khan were also magicuan had amazing nicks. qamar zaman the wrong footed back court dropper wass another. But sometimes you cant judge with mastery and tricks.
we are so lucky to watch Ramy Ashour play, think how the game may never see someone more consistant, talented, and physically and mentally superior then anyone at the same time
I've been playing for 23 years and I have never seen anyone make the game seem to be so simple... Jeez Ramy can you be more relaxed when you play..... ;-)
Egypt in squash is way better than Brazil in football!!, at least nowadays, between the top ten guys in football I would say there is just one Brazilien (Neymar), 6 for Egypt in squash. In the last three World Championships Brazil just has reach a 4th position as their best performance, meanwhile Egyp has won 2 of the las 3 World Team Championships being finalist on the other
Ahmad Pakistan produced Hashim Khan, Qamar Zaman, Gogi Allaudin and jahngir and jansher Khan all of them have won at least 1 British Open. And three of them still hold the world records which no Egyptian have been able to beat
In a class by himself, Ramy is. Even if Willstrop was at full speed, most of those shots would have given him trouble, put him under serious pressure. I play that well sometimes, beating world top players 11-2. Then I wake up.
He is a huge inspiration, to me and to the world. He is a amazing representative for squash, all the players are, and we will be in the Olympics in 2020. Lots of love for squash.

It's not Ramy's best squash. As good as Wilstrop is, he's simply not in the same league as Ramy. I would nominate Ramy's 2014 El Gouna Classic win over Elshorbagy as some of the best squash ever played. It almost doesn't look like squash anymore--at least not the classic game played by Wilstrop et al.
It seem he play better against Mohamed just because ElShorbagy play at a higher pace than Willstrop, he play fast and furious so he can beat Ashour with power and pace and Ashour keep his pace so the game become superfast and full of winners, meanwhile Willstrop play at a slower rithym trying to slow Ashour pace so he can´t play winners and looking for create good ocasion with accurate shots and make Ramy do mistakes, but he is superb in his style when he is in form!!, the proof is how he beat Elshorbagy on the World Championship last year
Squash is one of the best game in the world. Wish more people knew the importance of this game. If you play other games you remain fit but for squash, you need to be fit first.
What an incredible shame Ramy can't stay healthy enough to have performances like this more often. He just skipped HK with an injury, gave up at the World Open with an injury, and retired from the US Open with an injury. And this has been happening for years. If this guy could just stay healthy, I shudder to think of the number of titles he'd have won by now. Hope he can lick this injury bug eventually.
It’s easy to play great squash when the ball is played loose all the time and unfortunately a very tired Wilstrop wasn’t able to keep it anywhere near tight enough. The GOAT for me was without a doubt Jahangir. I have seen him play for hours up and down the wall keeping the ball so tight there really was no chance to attack, but I have also seen him play similar games to this. Probably the best game I saw was when things just weren’t working. Instead of getting frustrated, he just shut down those bits of his game and still managed to win comfortably. Unfortunately the 1980’s was probably when we saw squash at its peak and we are unlikely to see same level of talent again as there just isn’t enough players to push people to excel anymore. I’d love to be proved wrong here, but I think its going to take a huge resurgence in popularity to do it, and I can’t see that happening, at least not here in Australia anyway.
No. Ramy's best is yet to come. I am waiting for that. He is the best squash player ever seen in the recent history of squash. May ALLAH Bless him with more health and fitness. Ameen.
You need to take into consideration the outdoor venue will make the ball play deader so coupled with James bring stiff from day before it makes sense it took him 3 mind plus to get going.
I wiki-ed the game like randomly and after reading rules came to youtube to see a practical. Well I think I accidentally watched the best match of the game.

What I'm wondering is, where's his second racket?
chakraUK good question...
+Michael Vergamalis yes he is the most talanted squash player on the earth RAMY ASHOUR, EGYPT IN SQUASH LIKE BRAZIL IN FOOTBALL THIS IS THE TRUTH
Egypt in squash is like Japan in football . Pakistan is the powerhouse of squash .59 years rule

Who asked?
@@adityaranjan2825 REEEEEEEEE
It’s a tradition to watch this every now and then
Need me a Ramy binge every six months or so
This is crazy talent.. When you play squash you appreciate these shots
indeed, this is unreal squash. I'm so shit in comparison
Mr.K im not
Idk if there’s such a thing as talent

Nope ik em

Rackets were heavier for Jahangir and Jansher....Ramy ashour volley and anticipations skills became mush easier with modern squash rackets

Noman Bukhari Do you remember Qamar Zaman dropping his racket and hitting a dead nick with his hand!
I AGREE.
Squash needs more people playing it
ikr
MICLA64I MCPE ı agree whit you
Dont worry I think it's getting more popular

Squash is a miss understood sport
8 years later and this is my recommendation. I'm impressed.
we are so lucky to watch Ramy Ashour play, think how the game may never see someone more consistant, talented, and physically and mentally superior then anyone at the same time
I've been playing for 23 years and I have never seen anyone make the game seem to be so simple... Jeez Ramy can you be more relaxed when you play..... ;-)

Welcome to another round of
Why is this in my recommended?
Very weird indeed

***** I know Pakistan dominated in the past, that is why i said nowadays
Pakistan dominated this game from 50s to late 90s so we can that Pakistan is the true Brazil of squash and Egypt in Belgium of squash (sessional) 😉😉😉
Brazil is the best country ever, end of story 😘
Mariana Costa Brazil is an underdeveloped country with favelas everywhere
1:40 that's just brilliant...he's like Roger Federer in Tennis.
Textbook.
ame7272 hes better
roger like stebe rogers from avengers 2!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! edit:
federer plays squash as well, it's essentially a pseudosport although its good cardio
That Egyptian magician, what a legend!
The British invented the game and the Egyptians mastered it!
Ahmed Abou-Shaaban i think Pakistani players have a much bigger legacy
Ahmed Mughal Pakistanis produces 2 amazing legends but Egyptian have had more than 20 amazing great players over the years
Ahmed Mughal
The World number 1 rank in Men , Women , individual and teams including youth all belong to Egypt !
Ahmad Pakistan produced Hashim Khan, Qamar Zaman, Gogi Allaudin and jahngir and jansher Khan all of them have won at least 1 British Open. And three of them still hold the world records which no Egyptian have been able to beat
Hashim Khan was the first legend of squash
Did i really just watched this on a work night at 3:00 AM?
i just watched this on a work night at 3:40. lovely sport.
try 6 am, 3 hours before an applied physics exam :)
This is too meta

Gosh, Ramy is unbelievable!
Joey : He's got to win the first game
Ramy Ashour : 8 - 0
OMG that's incredible!!
In a class by himself, Ramy is. Even if Willstrop was at full speed, most of those shots would have given him trouble, put him under serious pressure.
I play that well sometimes, beating world top players 11-2. Then I wake up.
ramy just nailed it , great player
Ramy is awesome.

Rami is an immortal legend in the world of squash💯❤
that look at Malcom's face @3:42 says it all. Ramy is a great gentleman sportsman. he gave away that point to show some respect.
I'm pretty sure that hit the nick
+Imaad Said but look at that laziness from Ramy. it was intentional miss imo
Best player I've ever seen.....FACT
Started playing squash again, just such a great sport
First time seeing squash match LOL pretty impressive !!
Same
The era which great players don't wanna any strokes
The first play for me it's a stroke
Congratulations on 2 Million views!!
Unbelievable. The precision is unbelievable.

Well let me put it this way. This is the best game of squash I've ever seen him play.
Something Al mighty Allah blessed Ramay with..... Its simple exclusive art of playing squash.
you are true he was blessed with something peculiar from the creator
Oh yess so true
Unbelievable squash by the artist
Agreed!
What a great player
If only he played like this in the Allam British Open 2014! (injuries) :(

Pakistan no where for last 20 years
With James height and Ramy's agility the game seems so easy to play. Step in, step out!

I had no idea this game was as difficult as it is ~~ I need to play!!!

The commentators are really awesome.
absolutely unbelievable

Taking the squash up again brilliant game it is
Ramys back hand tho is on fire
goooooooooood ashor
The day squash moved forward from old school to new reality.
“Look how flexible he is here the way he arches his back”. Said the commentator with rigor Mortis
Mashallah this is true magic
Squash is one of the best game in the world. Wish more people knew the importance of this game. If you play other games you remain fit but for squash, you need to be fit first.
Gud one
Bring this RAMY Back
true
Ramy Ashour ♥
Awesome game
Bro I was so confused at that first bit, then I realised they were just warming the ball up
Ashour the most exciting squash player ever in my opinion!

I read somewhere he doesn't warm up as much as other pros
Can't be, just the one nick! ;)
thanx and also, the rules are simply ball not hiting the ground twice?
Yes you can also hit it before it even touches the ground it's called volley
the artist ramy ashour with no mercy 😈

clearly the best!
Is it me or I just dont get these shots but it looks good, and as an badmiton player people confuse these sports and wow they are very different
that rally at 4:38 - incredible.
I wish they kept this layout of the court and on the front wall.
This is a perfect example of heavy legs after a 90+ minute match the day before. Nonetheless, to beat Willstrop 6 minutes is unheard of.
the office brought me here
Beast
Ramy knows when to smack and where and when to softly place the ball. James seemed to only just know how to smack during that game.
