SQUASH

Zena Wooldridge, World Squash Federation (WSF) President: “On behalf of the entire global Squash community, I would like to express my immense delight at Squash’s inclusion in the Los Angeles 2028 Olympic Games. Squash is an amazingly dynamic, diverse and competitive sport that is perfectly suited for the Olympic Games. Everyone involved in our sport is thrilled to be LA bound and we look forward to being part of an unparalleled Olympic Games experience. Our most sincere thanks go out to the LA28 OCOG and the IOC for their careful consideration, and to all who have helped Squash achieve Olympic recognition.”


Amanda Sobhy, No. 1 American Squash player: “It's everything that you can dream of as an athlete to be able to compete in the Olympic Games. To be able to compete for an Olympic gold medal, and just say that you were an Olympian is something that no one can ever take away from you. To have the chance to compete at LA28 and compete in front of friends and family with a home crowd would just be so meaningful, especially because that would probably be one of my last events in my career. To be able to say that I finish off my career with the Olympics is really just like a dream come true.”

Ali Farag, Men’s World No. 1 Squash Player: “I’m over the moon and super excited to hear the news that Squash is going to be included in the LA28 Olympic Games! It’s a dream of any athlete to raise their flag on the Olympic stage - it’s the biggest of them all. I can’t wait to see our sport there and showcase the brand of Squash and the brand of sport that we stand for. I’m really looking forward to it!”
