Welcome to the second edition of Maspeth on Tour! As the Steel Court touring pro, it is my job to give some updates on the events I’ve played in the past few weeks and see if they can stack up to the holy land that is the outdoor court in Maspeth, New York…
(spoiler alert, nothing can!!).
Ok, let’s dive in, because it’s been a busy start to the year! First up was the Tournament of Champions in New York City. I played an exciting match against “The Gunslinger” Youssef Ibrahim at the Harvard Club, they had decent plaster courts but they’re a bit old and have strange lighting- I have to give the Steel Court a decisive victory there. There is another court that they used in the tournament, but I didn’t get to play on it so Steel court wins by default.
This blog serves as the first of a series of short snippets giving some insight into the squash world, all from the perspective of a fellow fan who happens to also play! My name is Timmy Brownell, I’m a squash lover from Belmont, Massachusetts currently living in Philadelphia, which is not-so-subtly becoming the main hub for high level squash in America. I moved away from home in the summer of 2021 to pursue my dream of playing squash at the highest level, and since then my life has been a whirlwind of plane rides, gym sessions, and all the highs and lows you can expect in the life of a professional athlete! Anyways, enough about me!
