Nothing stops the Egyptians: Nicol


PETALING JAYA: World No.1 Nicol David has two fights on her hands in the coming days, with the International Olympic Committee (IOC) decision on squash’s inclusion looming, as well as the CIMB Malaysian Open from Sept 10-15.

With all of that on her mind, the seven-time world champion who regained her national title last week after defeating national No. 2 Low Wee Wern, can’t help but feel a pang of sympathy for her Egyptian peers.
