Drexel University will host the men’s and women’s 20011 U.S. Open Squash Championships October 1st through the 6th. Last year’s tournament in Chicago was the first time the men’s and women’s competitions were combined at the same location. Although this is Drexel’s first time hosting this event, they are undoubtedly up to the challenge having successfully managed major sporting events including the 2008 US Table Tennis Olympic trials.
With $175,000 in prize money at stake, the tournament will surely attract the best players in the world and with the growing popularity of squash in the Northeastern states, the fans are sure to pack the stands. Qualifying rounds will be played at local clubs starting September 29th and 30th. The final rounds will be held at the newly renovated Daskalakis Athletic Center on Drexel’s campus. Tickets will go on sale this spring. Attendance will be at capacity, so get your tickets early. The tournament will also be streamed live on www.psasquashtv.com and the finals will be shown on ESPN 3.
www.PhillySquash.com will post the draws and results for the entire tournament.
