This is the ultimate tournament on the World Tour and to become World Champion is regarded the highest pinnacle of competitive achievement amongst PSA players.
With a 64-man draw, this tournament is the most physically and mentally challenging of the season.
To win it once is an achievement, but to win it several times elevates a player's name to the legends of the sport: Jansher Khan (PAK) x 8, Jahangir Khan (PAK) x 6, Geoff Hunt (AUS) x 4, Amr Shabana (EGY) x 4, David Palmer x 2, Nick Matthew (ENG) x 2.
