Mohamed Elshorbagy collected his second PSA World Tour title in eight days – and established a career-best 10-match winning streak – when he upset top-seeded Egyptian compatriot Karim Darwish in the final of the Banque Misr Sky Open, the PSA International 50 squash event at the Sky Resort in New Cairo, Egypt.<\/p>\n

Ranked six in the world, Elshorbagy is enjoying the form of his life: Last week in Doha, the 22-year-old from Alexandria captured his first
PSA World Series title at the Qatar Classic – again defying the world rankings by beating world No 5 Darwish en-route to the final.<\/p>\n

Elshorbagy (pictured above in Sky action with Darwish) went into the final 3-9 down to Darwish on a career head-to-head tally over the past
four years – but had only dropped a single game in his three wins over the former world No 1 from Cairo. And the young pretender clearly took full advantage of Darwish’s <\/span>demanding route to the final, which had included two five-game <\/span>marathons in which the 32-year-old had had to recover from two games <\/span>down.<\/span><\/p>\n

Darwish had no answer to the youngster’s pressure as Elshorbagy romped to an 11-2, 11-7, 11-8 victory in 43 minutes to win the seventh Tour
title of his career.\n<\/p>\n

“I had to be very focused from the very first point today as I knew if this gets very tough I could be in trouble mentally as I could feel last night I was tired mentally,” Elshorbagy told www.squashsite.com<\/a> later.<\/p>\n

“After winning the first game I knew he would give it a big push in the second as we both know there was no way today he could come back
from 2\/0 down as physically it would have been close to impossible after the amount of hard matches he had.<\/p>\n

“So after the few long rallies we had in the second I knew that was good for me and I started going short more at the end of the second
and I could feel he was struggling to move there because I could feel he was tired.<\/p>\n

“I am just very happy I could back up after Qatar and the worlds.”<\/p>\n
