18/09/2008 - The Hindu News: Squash deserves to be part of the Olympic Games, which would raise its profile and inject more money into its development, especially in India, former men's national champion Ritwik Bhattacharya said on Wednesday. |
"I was watching the Beijing Games Opening (ceremony) and thought we (squash fraternity) deserved to be there. Once we enter the Olympics the profile of the game will raise and more money would also come in," said Bhattacharya who is here to take part in the 33rd Bombay Gymkhana-HSBC Maharashtra State Open.
Bhattacharya's views were supported by his compatriot and top woman's player Joshna Chinnappa and Malaysian world No. 11 and men's top seed in the tournament here, Mohd Azlan Iskander.
