Sports Marketing has confirmed that the Former World Champion
David Palmer will take part in the third edition of the 9
Telecom Legends of Squash at St. Georges Hill Lawn Tennis
Club, Surrey.
The Gold Tour event will take place from 14-17th September
2012 and headlining the event this year will be Former World
Champion and Ex-World Number One Palmer.
Having made a successful debut on the Legends of Squash Tour in
Belgium in May beating Peter Nicol in the final, Palmer will be
hoping to continue his success in the UK having picked up four
British Open titles during his professional career.
Nick-named ‘The Marine’, Palmer retired from the PSA World Tour
last November but has remained in great shape and will provide a
tough test for the returning Legends.
This year’s event promises to be the strongest yet featuring
four Ex-World no.1s who have amassed over 150 titles during
their illustrious careers. However, Messrs Jonathon Power,
Peter Nicol and John White will all be keen show
Palmer that life on the Legends tour can be just as competitive
as it was on the PSA.
Palmer had a phenomenally successful professional career adding
two World Open titles to his British Open haul, and he is keen
to add to the silverware with success on the Legends Tour.
 "It
was great to be invited to be part of the Legends Tour," said
Palmer from his home, and training academy, in Florida. "I have
had some great battles with the guys over the years and look
forward to many more!
"The event in Namur showed that the rivalries can continue for a
few more years albeit on a slightly less intense level!
This year ex-World no.7 and the most capped squash player of all
time Irishman Derek Ryan also joins the fray. With former
World no.4 Simon Parke, 7-time European Club Champion
Tim Garner and ex-British National Champion Stephen Meads
completing the mouth-watering line-up, it is destined to be a
marvellous few
days of squash in Weybridge.
