Endurance… with a view.

The Endurance World Open Bermuda 2007 is the culmination of one of the largest contracts in the history of squash, signed between the PSA and Bermuda.
Indeed, Bermuda has already hosted the immensely successful PSA Masters Tournaments in 2006 and 2005, and the Bermuda Open in 2004. But the men’s World Open Bermuda is the first event to feature the famous glass court with ocean views.
With a draw of 32, a prize sum of $175,000 (equaling the highest ever purse for the World Open), and most importantly, the coveted title of World Champion to fight for - you are guaranteed to see all the stars of the men’s game at this event: the princely Amr Shabana, goliath David Palmer, the powerful James Willstrop, and feisty Gregory Gaultier, to name just a few. The striking glass court, surrounded with comfortable theatre-style seating, giant screens, music and lights, will be set at the Fairmont Southampton hotel, providing stunning views over Horseshoe Bay beach and the ocean. Add to this live, mid-match entertainment and the presence of charismatic MC Robert Edwards - “the Voice of Squash”, and the Endurance World Open Bermuda 2007 is set to thrill.
If you love squash, Bermuda will be the place to be. The prestigious men’s event and the World Squash Federation Conference and AGM will be combined, and alongside the established celebrities of the game, watch the future stars of squash compete in the Bank of Bermuda Foundation Junior Open, or the top amateurs in the Bermuda Open Graded Championships. The small island in the middle of the Atlantic will truly be the capital of the squash world for a week.
