The Grange Pro schools the world #2 (for a game anyway)

Kev Moran made a tremendous impact for the club at the British Championships, coming through two tough rounds of qualifying to get into the main draw. The second match against Northumbria's experienced David Barnett (31yo, World ranked no. 109 a few years ago) was a long, close-fought 3-0 to earn him a random draw against one of the 24 seeded players.

Whose name should pop out of the hat but James Willstrop, the No1 seed from Yorkshire who topped the world rankings last month. A bit like getting the old firm in a cup draw.

Willstrop dropped a game before overcoming Scottish qualifier Kevin Moran 11-3, 9-11, 11-4, 11-4 in 35 minutes.“I’ve not seen Kevin before,” said the 28-year-old from Leeds who became world No1 last month.

Kevin is available at the club for coaching at a very reasonable £15 per 40 min session or BufGof(Buy five, Get One Free) and as I've found out first hand, brings the latest fresh techniques from the Scottish Squash Academy to The Grange.
