I played a lot of squash for a lot of years.

Squash has been my life and I owe a lot to the sport.

Squash has the credentials to become an olympic event and our goal is to see the sport in the 2008 Beijing Olympics. We are working towards this and will keep trying even if our bid is not successful.

I've been playing squash almost daily for 38 years.

Squash was my livelihood and as in business, I had to stay on top.

I was very keen on squash. My father used to go to sleep in the afternoon. Normally, in Pakistan, everybody goes to sleep in the afternoon, because it's really hot. I'd go and play without telling anybody.

I would much rather devour a piece of well-seasoned squash than a slice of an animal's rotting carcass.

While you can find zucchini in markets in most places year-round, allowing you to make everything from breakfast dishes like zucchini and onion frittatas to snacks like zucchini-stuffed crab cakes, the onset of fall marks the beginning of hard squash season.

My definition of winning at squash is playing and surviving, and I've never lost a match.
