R2: Fares Dessouky 3-0 Edmon Lopez
[13] Fares Dessouky (Egy) 3-0 Edmon Lopez (Esp) 11-5, 11-3, 11-5 (23m) It must have been a bit of a shock to the Spanish system playing on a freezing glass court after having played the day before on a warm traditional…
R2: Tarek Momen 3-0 Mazen Hesham
[2] Tarek Momen (EGY) 3-0 Mazen Hesham (EGY) 11-9, 12-10, 11-5 (35m) I’m stunned at Tarek’s draw so far. Playing first Rafi Kandra, then Mazen Hesham is not an easy start to a major event, now is it! And especially,…

Abdulla Al Tamimi (QAT) 3-0 Mathieu Castagnet (FRA) 12-10, 11-8, 11-8 (43m) Abood – as we call him – made a whole country very happy. At 24, he is finally able to show what he can do in his own…

R2: Karim Abdel Gawad 3-1 Cesar Salazar
[3] Karim Abdel Gawad (EGY) 3-1 Cesar Salazar (MEX) 10-12, 11-6, 11-5, 11-7 (44m) Bit of a weird match that one, to be honest, with Karim that didn’t seem to be that focused to start with, so many errors, but…
R2: James Willstrop 3-0 Youssef Ibrahim
James Willstrop (Eng) 3-0 Youssef Ibrahim (Egy) 11-7, 11-8, 11-4 (24m) In case you missed it, at 9/9 in the 5th, Youssef fell and twisted his ankle playing against Daryl yesterday. As it was a contributed injury, the Egyptian…
Day TWO : It’s Tamimi again
R2: Joel Makin 3-1 Mohamed ElSherbini
[11] Joel Makin (Wal) 3-1 Mohamed ElSherbini (Egy) 11-3, 6-11, 11-9, 14-12 (74m) Well, not an easy match that was…. Very dramatic ending and a bit of a messy match all together… Makin in control in the first game,…
