Great seeing Gawad in this form. The level of squash is now unreal.
Absolutely - some incredible rallies there!
One for the history books. Respect to both fighters!
So happy for Gawad, such an amazing player. His gets in this game were unbelievable
However gutted for Shorbagy, he has been so consistent this season and really deserves one more period at number 1. Played some phenomenal squash recently - this game was amazing, that frustration when you throw everything you have but come up against someone on Gawads form, must be so disheartening.
Hope Gawad goes on to win
never shout "yellah" this loud watching psa, so freaking happy for gawad, so deserved he plays so well
You mean “yallah”
Yallah= come on
Squash spectators like to joke about Gawad's pizza eating antics and imply that he's just a shot-maker > but his physicality at the moment rivals anyone else in the sport; Coll, Makin etc. Superb movement!
you can't be just a shot maker at this level of play, no way
I think that its his movement that is so effective
Gawad neither gives his opponent time to take a breath, nor to blink with his eyes... even for me at home watching the game.
Gawad ..this is exquisite …what an incredible comeback 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Shorbagy was not unhappy about a double bounce at the end of the match. He was unhappy because the referee granted a Let that Gawad didn't appeal for at 7-6. Gawad played through the interference but immediately complained about Shorbagy's movement after losing the point on the following shot. The referee/video ref agreed. The referee has the power to allow a Let without an appeal, especially for reasons of safety (Shorbagy's movement into Gawad's line created a dangerous situation, so the referee did not want to encourage that movement). But people always say that you can't get a Let if you accept the interference, and Shorbagy was apparently unaware that the ref could decide to give one anyway.
Yea the rules do so say that.
Gawad is a big player.
I hoped this result.
For me ,with farag are the best players of the moment
Wow. What a fantastic match. Squash needs players like Gawad. A lovely contrast in styles makes great watching.
Gawad for Champion!!! ❤❤❤
Gawad's performance is unbelievable!
These rallies made me yell out loud. Easily the best match I´ve seen in a while, a battle of creativity and shotmaking vs physicality and machine-like consistency. Beautiful squash by both guys, but Gawad is just playing unreal squash, and his movement is very solid too, some of his gets are unbelievable, watching him play is just a joy right now
WHAT. A. MATCH.
Both these guys are monsters of the game.
Compared to some in the rankings, Gawad has an “unfair” advantage since he knows he never has to rely upon blocking, crowding, or gamesmanship to win. When you play pure-you never have to second guess your own instincts, no matter the opponent, etc.
Ridiculous how good Gawad's shots can be under pressure when most other players would just be able to get the ball back in play
Go Gawad...a Great game!
Gawad is my new champion. His game is just outstanding lately. Great game
i met gawad once in new york last year during thr TOC amd before his operation, he was such a humble, kind sportsman
Zoinks! ❤ Extraordinary. Fastest squash I’ve seen. Exciting to watch.
Amazing game! That is free-flowing no bullshit great squash!
Empty seats??? What a great game of squash to watch. Change the venue, its the worlds and you cant fill the seats.... Karim and Mo both played so well and its great to see Karim back to his best. Saw him at the Optasia event in Wimbledon this year and he played brilliantly. It was packed BTW.
Yeh they should either change the location in America if they hold it there or just never hold it there and always have it in Egypt or England
It wasn't the venue, it was the schedule. This match didn't get started until after 10 PM on a Wednesday evening, leaving the crowd with limited options for getting home afterwards and up for work in the morning. The evening started with one of the longest women's matches on record which threw everything off.
@@nefarious8278 Egipt crowd is horrible. I always enjoy English audience though. They have a lot o fun and respect every player the same.
@@Mike-er2ih I am Egyptian and I agree with you..most Egyptians have football fan mentality they support teams or nationality
Global Squash level just moved up a notch as a whole after this match! Just wow!
Absolute class from both of these, not pushing into each other's space, playing through a little bit of unintended interruption, great for the viewers!
So great just to see Gawad back playing squash. Not surprised at all he's having this level of success he's an extremely special squash player, just surprised he found his game so quickly after coming back!
The flow of this match was so characteristic - elshorbagy loves front running, but gawad usually grows in confidence as the match develops
What a match! Gawad is unreal.
That was beautiful.
Best player to watch since Ashour
Gawad is truly the best ambassador for squash at this moment with Farag a close second. Not once have I seen him use any questionable tactics to win, always a gentleman and to top it off, the supreme shot maker. I think even his opponents secretly are rooting for him to win everything. He is the polar opposite of Asal who solely depends on his physicality and cheating tactics. Very interesting era of squash we’re in.
Gawad seems to have a unique ability to discover a winning touch or shot from any possible angle !
Glad to see gawads resurgence. Always knew he still had this in him even though its been a few years sinxe he has been at his peak
Gawad is back. One of the best players ever.
Gawad on Fire!!!
If you slow down the replay at 11:01 you can see the ball hits the nick and bounces weird, and in a split second Gawad adjusts and hits a winning boast anyway. Crazy.
He was giving up to retire then started playing some of the best squash in his life.
Gawad has come back to his best. Unbelievable, considering an injury that he overcame.
Amazing match!!!
Gawad is on fire!!!!!!!
Such fast reactions ,love it
excellent job finish it now you are the best in the world now
are we not gonna talk about how Gawad got revenge on MO's "Rashford move"
Indeed Gawad could be playing as well or even better than his 2016 wins . My fav player at the moment but I think it's hard to beat Faraq as Farag could be physically 1/2 a notch more solid with both equally skillful.
Chapeau to Gawad !
Gawad is insane ❤️🔝
some of the best squash I've ever seen
what a match!
Great to see two players trying to play the game, rather than get in the way of their opponent.
I bloody love gawad, comes across like a gentleman too
🔥🔥🔥
Unbelievable intensity
Gawad talent is pure
Gawad just shows up everywhere in the court without feeling that he is doing any running or efforts but Shorbagy is like a truck on high speed 😅
What a stuff, great, hope younger on the tour will watch this….
simply B E A U T I F U L!
He. Is. Back.
Best Gawad ever!
Roger federer was Also n17 when he came back to win the autralian open
So there was a suggested double bounce that we didn't see in the last few points, that's hard for Mohamed for sure. Well played Karem. Hope he goes all the way and takes this one out, he's playing just so well.
Mo hit a double just before it, so it evened out in the end.
@@BeakFoundry Hard these days for the chair referee to pick these things up, the games between the top guys is just so quick.
Where we can watch the whole game please
Well done Gawad
So happy for Gawad, not sure about the double bounce situation. Poor editing
Spoiler!
@@rajeevam3 you do know these highlights come out way after the actual match?
GO GAWAD!
Oh those Egyptians!
If Gawad wins after defeating Asal, does he automatically get promoted to rank 1 for defeating 1,2 and 3 in the same tournament 😅
I'll sell my soul to the devil to play squash like Gawad.
Great play and well deserved… are we seeing this years champion ?
Wow they both moved so much. I was cringing seeing them g pick up those drop shots
Love Karim Abdul Gawad! I only hope he can extend Ali, so that old spider frame gets fatigued at some point!
What was elshorbagy unhappy with at the end?
Can an Englishman clarify what the expression that sounds like "bull ripper" at 1:26 is?
absolutely genius stuff from Gawad! one adverse comment I would like to make, and I hope Joey and P will read this, is as follows: I have always followed the squash on SquashTV and what I hear in commentary from Joey/PJ is the same 'ole vocabulary - its poor to say the least. Come on guys, you have been doing this a very long time, and you have not improved in any way whatsoever... your most recent invention is the word "joke" to describe a great stroke or rally ... how is that good commentary... perhaps no on else out there will agree with me BT Joey/PJ... please give it a bit of thought.. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE... at its best, this is an elegant and graceful sport, do it justice in your use of vocabulary in commentary or let others into the process who may excel at it
no Farag or Sherbini highlights???????
for the entire tournament??
Elshorbagy just can't find any solution with Gawad
Am i the only one who thinks that this paul johnsons commentator has no idea??
Lots of empty seats..when you look at these events it’s either pros and coaches or sponsors in the stands. Gotta find a way make the matches more accessible
The match started at 10:00pm, its a scheduling issue in this case.
As usual we don't get to see the controversial moments.
5-4 Gawad 5th set. Easy YL decision. Commentators disagreeing saying Gawad did nothing wrong and was holding his ground. This would reasonable if ball stayed tight to wall but it bounced out to towards the players. Then commentator says ball travels even further away. Moronic statement, either that or trying to force a narrative he's already committed to. Either way, poor commentating from someone who should know better.
Elshorbagy blaming the ref for his own movement being exposed even after picking up a double bounce. Anyone who has played squash to a decent level knows when they have picked up a double. Cheating is becoming rife in a sport which I used to respect.
30 years after playing league, my knees are shot. Mohammed needs to be careful.
Great for Gawad, who from my point of view is the best in a tactical sense.
But I have the feeling that Rodriguez's pharmacist's magic potions are no longer known to him...🫀🫁💪
