Forward is Forward

I did say on November 24 in my TDIYS update that forward is forward! At that point in time, we had 497 copies of “The Diamond in Your Speech”. 

 

Since then, we have inched forward. Yesterday, when we tallied our sales, we had managed to reduce our stockpile to just 459 books.

 

And nearly 40% of the thirty-eight books sold during this period came from our mini workshop "Communicate with Power" at Shell Cyberjaya yesterday. We had a whopping attendance of 192 participants – twenty in-person and 172 online.

A good session overall!

Malaysia's former World No. 5 Low Wee Wern announced her retirement from professional squash yesterday, calling time on a 18 year career. 

 

The biggest titles that Low won both came in China as she captured the China Open in 2012 and 2014, a 50k World Tour event. Low defeated New Zealand’s Joelle King in 2012 and France’s Camille Serme in 2014. 

 

Unfortunately, Low’s career was plagued by injuries, resulting in lengthy spells away from squash as she recovered. 

 

The 33-year-old continued to come back and showcase her quality on the PSA tour including recording a 16 match winning streak as she claimed four titles in a row after a spell of nearly 2 years away from the sport. 

 

Low played in seven events in 2023, last featuring in the Barfoot & Thompson New Zealand Open (December 05-10) where she lost out to eventual champion Nele Gilis.
