Pakistan’s young squash sensation Sohail Adnan has etched his name in history by winning the prestigious British Junior Open Under-13 Squash Championship 2025.
In an intense final, Adnan defeated his Egyptian opponent, top seed Moez Tamer Elmoghazy, by 3-2 games.
The tournament, held in Birmingham, marks a significant milestone for Pakistan as the country claims the British Open Under-13 title after an 18-year hiatus. Sohail Adnan becomes the fifth Pakistani player to win this coveted junior title.
This title was last clinched by Nasir Iqbal in 2007.
The victory not only highlights Adnan’s exceptional talent but also brings hope for the revival of squash in Pakistan, a country that has produced legends in the sport.
