What a joke the Egyptian crowds are... It's embarrassing for the sport that they can't show appreciation to non Egyptian players.

Well done Diego. Terrible crowd

Sometimes the silence of a crowd is the greatest applause!

So now we get Elias versus Asal in Egypt. Ooof. Good luck ref.

Dear Mr Elias: I don't know if you read KZfaq comments much but we met more than 10 years ago in Halifax Nova Scotia and I asked you how your name should be pronounced, for the benefit of our "MC" etc. I have very great joy in knowing that you have won the World Open. My very heartiest congratulations to you. Like Thierry Lincou (who won the tournament in Halifax twice) your first trainer was your own father. You have my deepest and heart-felt congratulations. What a master of the game of squash you have become. Que dia tan maravilloso y tu padre esta muy muy orgulloso. DH

Vamos Elias! Gracias por esta increible presentación. Arriba Perú!

Awesome...really chuffed for Elias!!!! Brilliant, top class squash.

Great achievement Elias. Beating Farag the way he has been playing lately is a monumental achievement and Elias has done that quite easily.

Egyptian crowd cannot appreciate good squash players and matches

The crowd is a disgrace, even for top class Farag Well played the puma

What a performance, don’t think many predicted that

✨️ 🇵🇪 DIEGO 🇵🇪 ELIAS ✨️ ... Arriba PERÚ !!! 🤗🥳🤗

Crack! arriba Perú!!! felicitaciones!!!

Zoom lens is killing all the depth. Might just as well be a 2 meter deep court. Great achievement by the underdog!

so happy for Elias!

Uaaaaaallll ! Congratulaciones Elias, usted lo merece Ali es un 'monstro' pero Elias esta vez..... En direción al tope 😅

Grande Elias, a veces te veo por el club pero me da roche joderte por pedir una foto a tremendo campeón. Sigue así maestro

Elias is in total control of the match. Well deserved.

Excellent Diego!! Congrats for your Victory !! Muy buen partido. Muy prolijos los dos. Saludos desde Miami.

Orgullosos por ti ,grande Elias te admiramos

Very very well played Diego! Despite the terrible crowd he managed to stay focussed and keep his head above in the game. What a champ… Egyptian crowd disgraceful

Gran jugador Don Diego.

This is the best performance of Elias I have ever seen in a Highlights video. It's a huge achievement to win a match against Farag in his current form. Elias had such consistent ball control on this court. He got his preparation right and his racket setup for this tournament was great for his game. He seemed to have a better sense of his racket feel and balance on the day.

Well done Elias. Love watching these two play!! Horrid to watch a match where the crowd can't support the game of squash as well as their home players. Almost to the point of I'd refuse to play there. It sickens me but maybe I'm alone on this!

Outstanding and really smooth squash from the Puma. Well deserved:)

Bien Diego 💪, vamos Perú.

In my humble opinion , if squash has to gain worldwide publicity , then matches should be telecasted live in youtube for everyone . The newcomers won't be willing to spend their money to watch matches. This ultimately leads to the lack of fan base for squash.

Wow!!

All the refs calling in sick for the final

Same with sherbini crowd, pretty shocking

not being able tosee the back of the court is.... a pain to watch

❤️🇵🇪

An amazing match as was the Asal -Coll semi final.

❤

The most racist crowd in squash. Why don’t they have these things in Europe or the states where there’s an actual atmosphere? Makes me not want to watch

Beating Farrah is no small thing. Well done Diego.

Bien Diego 🇵🇪

Finally

To bad i wanted Faraq vs Coll i final. Now this is gynna get really intense and messy. Also, are there no squash fans in the audience? Dead silent...

What. A. Treat.

My word Diego has improved so much. Next stop, raging bull versus the puma

Pathetic crowd, nice to see a non Egyptian winning soley for that reason...to silence the crowd!!!!

I love both these players but really feel it's Diego's time. Vamos Diego!!

That crowd is disgraceful

What pants Diego wears?

I don't know if it's because of fatigue or for other reasons, but those parallels are inadmissible to win a match Ali

And the other Semi finals?

Its a sign of absolute weakness when you cannot applaud good squash.. to YOU , WHO ARE PART OF THIS.. think ( if you have ability) for minute .... how negatively it could affect the player you are supporting...and how absolutely motivating it is for the opponent.. we all have our fav's...HOWEVER, the game is the most important thing..the battle of 2 strengths, the strategy, and everything left on court... is this a culture we want to leave as a legacy?? WOW!! Awesome squash, and at this time, i dont know who won..

Diego was so wide and tight into the back. Full attack when on and great height under pressure that Ali couldn't attack. Unplayable squash from Elias.

Farag is a true sportsman, the crowd could learn lessons from him, he applauds an opponents good shot and has humility in defeat, the crowd on the other hand were truly disgraceful, well done Elias

You know... Elias is basically beating Farag at a game style that looks a lot like Farag's....

Exceptional play from Elias. Farag didn’t make it easy. When he’s playing well, Elias is one of the prettiest players to watch. Typical middle eastern crowd, heads up their asses without a clue what squash is. Elias did great to ignore it.

This quality is no where near where it used to be PSA. Camera shaking?? Low res?

Always a great match against the best, Farag, however Elias notched it up a bit to take this out - well done Elias! As for the crowd, such losers, why were they their..

we can’t even see the full court…

Yes terrible sportsmanship by the local fans. Thankfully Farag the pkayer is a proper gentleman.

Triunfo peruano 😎

disgraceful Egyptian crowd. At the end of the game you can at least show some appreciation for Elias turning up, giving his best and competing. I like the Egyptian players and I would love to see them do well for the sport. Hopefully some Egyptian players can help their crowd understand sportsmanship

About the crowd silence comments.. It’s only because there aren’t many Elias supporters there.. In football one doesn’t cheer for the other team 🤷 - the silence is drowned out by the cheers, laughter and heckles of the victorious team. I.e. Insinuating that it’s xenophobia I thinks is a bit hasty - I’m sure there were claps at the trophy ceremony 😅

Elias well deserved, wow ! Crowd just embarrassing…what’s wrong with those arrogant people ?

Shouting come on Ali during point's Come on..

Crowd shouldn't be so one sided

Shame on you Egyptians, none of you applauding at the end. You don't know it's not only for the winner, but also for the looser, to appreciate the effort from both parties, or that's how you penalise for not winning?

Watching this crowd, I'd be soooo ashamed to be Egyptian.

Paul Coll lost in a very polemic stroke... or no?

Egypt - creates best players and WORST crowd. PSA should stop hosting events in egypt

I've never seen Elias so aggressive! This is a great new addition to his game.

Farag not going for finishing shots

Spectators squash. Disgraceful Egyptian crowd. Judging by the head pieces on a lot of the ladies who obviously think they are religious and can't even applause the opposition for highest quality squash in the world. Embarrassing

This crowd is a shame to our sport.

disgrace of a crowd!

Terrible camera work yet again? How is this even professional, cropping the last 3rd of the court and all that camera shake. Unwatchable. Squash Cable TV?
