‘I can start my senior career confidently’: Anahat Singh on what comes next
Anahat Singh has won the World Junior Squash Championship and is now transitioning to a full-time senior career. She is currently preparing for the Asian Games, which serves as a critical step toward qualifying for the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics.
Why it matters
As squash makes its Olympic debut in 2028, the development of young athletes like Singh is central to the sport's growing global profile.
Anahat Singh's first reaction after winning the World Junior Squash Championship was not about what the title might do to her profile.This was her last year in the junior circuit, and after years of playing squash, she finally had the title she wanted before moving fully into senior competition.“I think it's a good way to end my junior career, I'd say, because it's my last year playing juniors as well. I'm going to be turning 19 before I can play any other junior event so I think it's just a good way,” Anahat told Timesofindia.com.“I've been playing squash for 10 years, and it's a good note to end it and start my senior career so I can start it confidently and in a good way as well.”The timing is crucial because the Asian Games are already here.
