Saurav Ghosal, who has won two Asian Games gold medals in squash, announced his retirement from the professional circuit on Monday.
Ghosal, who has been playing on the PSA World Tour for 22 years, said that retiring was an emotional decision for him.
“I started my journey on the PSA World Tour 22 years ago. At the time, I never thought in my wildest dreams, I would play professional squash for so long. As I travelled across the world, playing on some of the biggest stages our wonderful sport offered, I thought it would never come to an end. But, there’s always an end point. I am overwhelmed with emotions as I write this message. This sport has been my passion, my livelihood, and my identity for so many years. So, with a heart filled with pride and a tinge of sadness, I announce my retirement from the PSA,” Ghosal said in a statement.
However, Ghosal hopes to continue playing for India in the future.
“Hopefully, there’s some fight left in me, and I can achieve a bit more for my country. Till then, THANK YOU!” he added.
