New Delhi(Agencies): India's
squash star Joshna Chinappa broke back into the top-10 of the PSA world
rankings following the shock retirement of Egyptian world No. 1 Raneem El
Welily.
Joshna, who has not played
since March due to the COVID-19 pandemic, moved up a spot to be in 10th
position.
The 33-year-old had entered
the top-10 for the first time in 2016. Dipika Pallikal is the other Indian
female player who has achieved the feat.
Egypt's Nouran Gohar is the
new world No. 1 following Raneem's retirement.
Raneem had held the top spot
for 19 months before announcing a sudden retirement last month.
India's top male player Saurav
Ghosal remains 13th in the latest rankings.
The PSA tour is suspended
until at least mid-August due to the coronavirus outbreak. PTI
