A fairly
quiet month in the men’s world rankings with only one player
inside the PSA top twenty moving more than one place.
 Nick
Matthew’s historic
British Open win sees him close the gap on Yorkshire rival
James Willstrop, but the top five remain unchanged at
Willstrop, Matthew, Gaultier, Ashour and new dad Darwish.
Peter Barker swaps
places with Amr Shabana to make it three Englishmen in the
top six,
Thierry
Lincou makes another
return to the top ten thanks to his Bluenose Classic win,
and
Borja Golan
- probably still thinking about being two and a half games
up against Ashour at the O2 - moves up two places to number
18.
Outside the top twenty
Jonathan
Kemp, soon to be
married, reaps the reward of being the only qualifier to get
past the British Open first round by rising four places to
36, and
Cesar
Salazar jumps seen
places to make his debut in the top 50.
 A
little more movement in the women’s list, capped by a
spectacular rise for 16-year-old Egyptian
Nour El
Sherbini who adds
another youngest-ever accolade to her collection.
Her reward for reaching the British Open final is an
eight-place jump to WSA number 7, making her the
youngest-ever in the top ten - and she beat the players at
4, 5 and 6 in the new list on her way to that final!
Nicol David remains
peerless at the top with well over double the points of her
nearest rival, with England’s
Jenny
Duncalf and
Laura
Massaro at numbers 2
and 3 and Raneem El Weleily at a career-high number 4.
Alison Waters
continues her comeback with a rise of four places to 24,
which would see her straight into the main draw of World
Series events (if there were any coming up), while Chennai
finalists
Sarah-Jane
Perry and
Joshna
Chinappa rise 17 and
22 places respectively to numbers 43 and 49.
