the fact 80% of players in these clips applauded his shots and not to forget they are professional players

When you can make Ramy Ashour pull those kind of faces of bewliderment and respect, you know you're a good squash player.

Number 26 is honestly one of my favourite all time shots. It's so unspectacular, off a regulation length from Golan, but the beauty unfolds as it slides down the wall and gradually loses pace, becoming increasingly unplayable the whole way.

It is the perfect drive. Spot on.

Not sure if that ridiculous accuracy can be called IQ. Could be "GB" for game brilliance, while the length drives and the multi fakes.... thats the IQ bit.
