Hashim Khan will compete in this year’s British Open in Birmingham - at the age of 86.
One of the greatest players of all time - and founding father of a line of Pakistan players bearing the famous Khan name - Hashim won his first British Open title in April 1951 and went on to win six more.
He will compete in the event’s over-60 event this year. Promoter Paul Gittings said: “Hashim is as much revered in the world of squash as Don Bradman was in cricket - and we are delighted he is still keen on participating in British Opens at such an age.”
