    My Lord... These back hand drives starting at 7:26... Audience and commentators also enjoyed the incredible skills of those two. Never seen that many perfect lines in a row.

      Rails actually, not drives. But yes, that was one impressive lineup!

      @@arnaud78 actually, it depends on where you come from -- some countries (e.g. USA) do indeed call them 'rails', but in Australia (for example) it's a 'drive' or 'straight length' -- I've never heard the term 'rail' used in Australia (or in England when I was playing there)

    That back wall boast retrieval at 10:46 is quite possibly the best I've ever seen.

      Jahangir Khan did one like that against Rodney Martin in the British Open finals where he did a full split, recovered from the split, full out court sprint to retrieve the drop, and wound up winning the point. That's the best one I can remember, but this is up there.

    Every bit as good as it looked from the highlights. In particular I've seen a lot of beautiful glued-to-the-wall exchanges but that sequence at 7:22... Ten in a row... I think that's the finest I've ever seen.

    If there ever was a game proving Farag is channeling Jansher Khan, it’s this one. Those front and back court retrievals are unbelievable and it’s good we have video replay to prove they were all good to Coll. I like how both play very clean and flowing squash too. A perfect example of what we’d like to see in the Olympics one day.

    • @momokilife1270
      @momokilife1270 4 роки тому +4

      Because their hands are wet so they just rub it with walls to make their dry

    Thought Coll deserved that one, some of the crosscourt nick attempts by Farag looked a bit loose.

    I'm very glad to see the ref do a video review.
    Otherwise I wasn't impressed with Coll. Coll is superman but does he have to broadcast almost all of his shots? Does he even know how not to broadcast his shots?
