Iran’s squash representative has succeeded in winning the first-ever individual gold medal in the history of this sport at the West Asian Championships.

The West Asian squash competitions kicked off in Iraq on Tuesday in Sulaymaniyah, and Iranian squash players faced off against their opponents.

Four Iranian squash players competed in the individual category, with only Sepehr Etemadpour making it through. After a bye in the first round, Etemadpour reached the top 8 players of the West Asian Championships by defeating his opponent from Oman.

Next, Etemadpour went up against Mohammad Mustafa from Iraq and won decisively with a score of 3-0, advancing to the top 4 players of the competition. He reached the finals of the individual category after winning 3-1 against Hassanin Dakheel from Iraq in the semifinals.

In the final, Etemadpour faced Kuwaiti squash player Ammar Al-Tamimi and, by defeating this well-known opponent, claimed the gold medal, becoming the first individual gold medalist in the history of Iranian squash in West Asia.

The Iranian national squash team participated in the tournament with a four-member lineup: Samiullah Qasdabadi, Mohammad Changaniyan, Pouya Shafieifar, Sepehr Etemadpour, and coached by Mohsen Gholamnejad Javid.
