Squash: J.P. Morgan Tournament of Champions 2020 - Men's Rd 3 Roundup [Pt.2]

[@inghell]

I know Willstrop is not the player he used to be but he is still just so good to watch. It’s just beautiful to watch him play with all his flair and complexity.

[@1967briano]

Willstrop is a phenomenal player.

Who wants to sleep at 2:43 am when PSA SQUASHTV has just made a new upload? Not me!

Squash > Sleep

5:57 - "He's not looking sharp out there, Gawad..." Next clip, Gawad is up 9-5. Who says PSATV doesn't have a sense of humor?

[@alexhopkins365]

No one doubts that Squash TV has a sense of humour. Joey Barrington is one of the most light-hearted commentators you're going to find in televised sport. It's great

[@simonwalker8984]

Hey Makin, wear a sweatband - love all the players on the PSA

[@alexanderlinton6946]

Gawad has to lose every one of his first games. Does he not warm up? Love watching Willstrop. True legend

[@MrJoel3498]

Alexander Linton when I watched his match with pajares he came in to the venue 15 minutes before his match so if he does it’s probably minimal

[@LearnAtMyExpense]

@@MrJoel3498 now that's a boss move if ever there was one. lol

[@peterhammer6915]

Has Makin ever smiled on the squash court or elsewhere?

[@peterhammer6915]

@@user71583 yeah you might be right. Would just hope to see smiling after the match.

[@MrJoel3498]

He was smiling quite a bit during his match with Elias

[@mwong987]

@@MrJoel3498 Makin aside, Gawad is one of the truly dour players

[@jimbojones8280]

Yes he does smile

[@zacthedack]

i saw him smile when he beat momen the first time

[@ahmedhafez6876]

hats off to Wilstrop

[@1967briano]

Declan James is a decent player and played really well when he played Gawad in St George’s but today in the last three games he gave him a squash lesson. Different league. Pity the commentators didn’t acknowledge the gulf in class. Gawad was really good.

[@CheapHomeTech]

It seemed like Makin was having to push a slow moving Willstrop out of the way multiple times on quite a few points. Makin was so polite about it...

[@wockodiddlo]

"he's looking light, confident, and quite minty"

[@leonardodominguez3491]

Thank you Gawad.

[@banortwi]

What are the rules behind new ball requests? Is there a specific moment of the match when it can be asked for? Which player is allowed to do so? Does it make them lose any of the reviews?

[@squashtv]

End of the 3rd game only :)

[@lambvision8496]

Saint Nick was everywhere in this giving gifts

[@HamSupZhai]

Who's black strap was it? Makin's? Didn't even see anything fall to the floor.

[@squashtv]

It was Willstrop’s heart monitor, but as it’s something the PSA asks players to wear a let was given. Normally if a piece of your equipment lands on the floor it’s a point to the opponent

[@jacobeliosoff1264]

Common sense ruling.

[@JC_46]

How is Willstrop’s heart rate so low?! I max at 210 when playing squash and usually sit between 185 & 195 during games.

[@hans9537]

yea why?

[@adam999444]

his chestband fell off it was probably loose!

[@afterlife101spirit]

Nice1 Joel! Good squash.

[@networkn]

Man if Gawad Beat James that hard off court, you'd call an ambulance and the police!!

[@andrewgilroy6847]

didn't realise kermit the frog was the referee in Gawad's match! @5:30

[@henrikeriksson7626]

@520 the ref really sounded like kermit aswell

[@hericodf79]

Willstrop, the only one to do a fake shot. amazing!!! incredible 15:18

[@maddogdaz1]

Hérico Fadoni incorrect, check Gawad 7.15

[@hericodf79]

@@maddogdaz1 right, the second one

[@firstave33]

If Willstrop fails to attempt a triple fake at some point in this tournament I will be disappointed.

[@jacobeliosoff1264]

A bunch of garbage matches and then MAKIN-WILLSTROP! Great performance by both. Lovely to see Willstrop still able to use his precision and guile to draw the best from a young talent like Makin!

[@deviousbasco5895]

Whatever Willstrop's son said to him between game 3 and 4 obviously worked.

[@MrCallidus]

"Welcome to the nick-fest"

[@fareedullahkhankakar1615]

Nice game Gawad
