Duo Mostafa Asal and CIB Nouran Gohar are the 2020-21 CIB PSA World Tour Finals champions after they defeated compatriots Mohamed ElShorbagy and CIB Hania El Hammamy today.

Asal – the reigning World Junior Champion – has lifted the first major PSA title of his career at the age of 20 after he recovered from a game down to overcome World No.2 ElShorbagy by an 12-14, 11-4, 11-7, 11-3 scoreline.

Asal has truly announced his arrival on the world stage with a sensational week in Cairo which saw him finish top of Group A as well as beating World No.1 Ali Farag, World Champion Tarek Momen, defending champion Marwan ElShorbagy as well as Mohamed ElShorbagy en route to his fifth PSA Tour title.

FINAL : Asal 3-1 ElShorbagy

Meanwhile, CIB Nouran Gohar has also won her first CIB PSA World Tour Finals – becoming the sixth woman to triumph at the event – after ending CIB Hania El Hammamy’s title defence courtesy of an 11-9, 11-6, 8-11, 11-8 victory.

Gohar and El Hammamy were the only undefeated players left in the event across both the men’s and women’s draws coming into the final and it was 23-year-old Gohar who held her nerve to complete an unbeaten run, meaning she claims the maximum 1,600 bonus ranking points on offer at the World Tour Finals.

It’s Gohar’s 10th PSA title and her first major trophy since the 2019 U.S. Open.

FINAL : Gohar 3-1 Hammamy

Both Asal and Gohar take home over $25,000 in prize money and they will next be in action at the PSA World Championships presented by the Walter Family between July 14-22 in Chicago.
