Mumbai: The countdown has begun to what is set to be a landmark moment in squash in India. India's first-ever PSA Squash Copper tournament, with a prize purse of USD 53,500, Indian Open 2025 will commence on March 24, with the finals scheduled for March 28 at the Bombay Gymkhana here. The competition will begin on the indoor courts, with the quarterfinals, semifinals, and final set to be played on a full-glass outdoor court, offering fans a unique experience. The JSW India Open is even more significant for the Indian sports fraternity as it welcomes back a major squash tournament to the country after a seven-year hiatus. Coincidentally, squash is set to make its Olympic debut at the 2028 Los Angeles Summer Games.
The return of top-level squash to the country with the India Open was announced in the presence of Ramit Tandon (India No. 1 in Men’s Squash) and Anahat Singh (India No. 3 in Women’s Squash).
When asked about his thoughts on the tournament, India No. 1 Ramit said, “It's always good to play at home. I think in India we don't get the opportunity to do it enough so I'm very thankful to JSW and everyone involved who have made this possible. IANS
