Egypt’s Women Continue to Shine on the Global Stage
In a strong start to the season, Habiba Hany, one of Egypt’s most promising young players, clinched the Bega Open title in Australia, a Bronze-level PSA event held from August 13 to 17. The tournament offered $27,500 in prize money and marked the first major event of the new tour calendar.
Hany delivered a commanding performance in the final, defeating top-seeded Indian player Anahat Singh 3–1 in just 28 minutes. The match scores were:
- 9–11, 11–5, 11–8, 10–4 (retired)

New Generation Steps Up
The depth of the Egyptian women’s squad heading into the London Classic reflects the country’s long-term investment in youth development and elite training. Players like Amina Orfi and Kenzy Ayman are part of a new generation stepping into the international spotlight, building on the legacy established by legends such as Nour El Sherbini and Raneem El Welily.
