World No.1 and seven-time World Champion Nour El Sherbini avoided a potential upset against World No.57 Chan Sin Yuk after the Egyptian won 3-2 against the Hong Konger in the third round of the TTI Milwaukee Hong Kong Squash Open 2023.

El Sherbini was two games up and had two match balls in the third before Chan surged back to reduce the deficit before levelling the match.

The tournaments top seed extinguished hopes of home favourite Chan producing the biggest upset of the tournament so far as El Sherbini clinched the fifth 11-7.

Its hard right now, I dont really know what was happening, but it was my first time playing her [Chan Sin Yuk] and she beat some good players here in Hong Kong, El Sherbini said.

I was in control in the first two games but it was a very tight last three games. She came back and everything was working for her. It was a new player for me so I didnt quite know what to expect.

She was going for every shot and having fun and thats why it was working for her. I lost a little bit of confidence and went off my game plan, but Im just glad I won in the end.

In the mens draw, defending champion Mostafa Asal came from one game down to see off his fellow Egyptian Youssef Soliman.

After Soliman clinched the first 13-11, Asal then claimed the following three games 11-6, 11-2, 11-5 to progress to the last eight.
