Tips on squash from an Egyptian legend

The sport of squash seems to be having a moment. The games was added to the Olympics schedule in 2028 - after a number of crushing rejections - and this year for the first time its flagship London event will have a women's tournament.

One of the star attractions at the London Squash Classic will no doubt be Nour El Sherbini.

She's a seven-time world champion - she's won the last five editions - and a bona fide winner but the Egyptian sporting icon has never competed competitively in London until now.

Newsday's sports presenter, Isaac Fanin, caught up with her in London where he asked her how she managed to stay motivated.
