Salma Hany

New Ranking: No.13

26-year-old Hany has struggled for form this season but has taken a step closer to her career-high ranking of No.7 despite bowing out in the last 32 of the Tournament of Champions.

Hany went down in five games to England’s Sarah-Jane Perry and will next compete at the DAC Pro Squash Classic between February 7-11.
