Who lit your
squash spark?
My parents have both been playing for over 25 years. I used to play tennis but got bored with that so one day when I went to squash with my parents I hit some balls and the club coach asked if I enjoyed playing and was interested in some lessons.
Always squash, or could you have competed in another sport? I played tennis and used to horse ride but not competitively.
What do you hate most about training? Doing boring routines, court sprints and running on the treadmill
The best thing about being an international player? Getting to travel, see new places, meet new people
Your favourite place
to play events?
Qatar & Dublin because I get to see my family!
Filling in time
before matches?
Watching DVD’s, Internet, lazing around
Squash superstitions? None
The worst thing
about travelling?
Jetlag; waking up at 3am, staring at the ceiling for two hours and then feeling like crap when you have to get up for breakfast.
Your travelling entertainment provider? iPod, laptop, magazines, crosswords (even though I'm useless at them)
