Poem
Duracell Bunny No More To her loyal fans, Nicol Ann David is the Duracell Bunny in Woman Squash... She dominated the rankings for an incredible 9 years in the World Woman Squash ... While lesser players only hope to get their hands on that prized trophy only once... The Duracell Bunny, she hefted it an impossible 9 times uninterrupted In a long run.. Now that she is 33 and counting, given the rich crop of talented players in the rankings... One wonders if she will again regain her aura of invincibility to again supersede the rankings.. Malaysians in general are suffering the aftershocks of her dismissal from world dominance... She is a household name, every Malaysian associate squash with this Nicol dame... Her immediate conqueror, Nour El Sherbini is but a spring chicken with talent in abundance.. Way back when she was only 13, Nour already signalled her precocious squash talent... At that tender age , she had managed to carve for herself a sensational piece of history... When she defeated other talented and older players in the Under 19 event of World Junior Open.. And to quell any lingering doubts that it was a fluke, Nour repeated the win in the next 2 Opens... So the youngest champion in World Junior Open today has fulfilled her long expected destiny... To become the youngest ever world champion at only 20, an epitome of her racket supremacy.. Nicol David, to her credit and everlasting fame, she aims to be back and be on top of her game... In her own words, she is far from retiring , she relishes the setbacks and challenges to her fame... To this squash queen, she has been there , yet voracious is her hunger for more of the same... Let the fun begin, her game will change and evolve, she is ready to learn new tricks to the game.. Hard work and diligence, as losses and wins, are part and parcel of playing in this game... Nour El Sherbini is now on the record as the youngest ever world woman squash champion... Datuk Nicol David was herself too the youngest champion when she started her 9 years' reign.. Only time will tell, will the newly disposed champion arises as a phoenix from the ashes of defeat.. Can the new champion fend off pretenders long enough to create another long winning streak... World Woman Squash is in for a most exciting time, a predominantly attacking player that's Nour... Against the sublime court retrieving skills of the evergreen Datuk Nicol David from Malaysia.....
