Windy City Open – Day One: How To Watch Live

It’s time for the sixth Platinum event of the 2023-24 season as the Windy City Open presented by the Walter Family gets underway today with 32 matches taking place across four courts at the University Club of Chicago.

Action from all four courts will be streamed live on SQUASHTV for FREE as the PSA celebrates 50 years today. Play starts at 12:00 (GMT-6) across all courts.

Egypt’s Sana Ibrahim and England’s Millie Tomlinson will open play on the glass court as they look to reach the second round of the event for the first times in their careers. An entertaining clash is next onto court as Indian No.1 Saurav Ghosal takes on the ever-improving Timothy Brownell. The USA No.1 has been in great form and almost claimed a big win over Karim Abdel Gawad in the recent HSC Houston Squash Open. He’ll be looking to cause an upset to move into round two.

England’s Nathan Lake has recently moved away from Chicago after spending several years living in the Windy City. He will have many friends and family in the crowd as he looks to score a win over one of the event wildcards 18-year-old Rustin Wiser. Women’s 16-year-old wildcard Ava Lin will face Hong Kong’s Tomato Ho.

Plenty of exciting matchups are lined up on the side courts, including Ramit Tandon versus Farkas Balazs in court one and Hana Moataz playing Hollie Naughton on court two.
