Al Ahram Draw ... made in Giza
After the completion of qualifying at the Cairo Stadium, it was off
to Giza for the live TV draw for the Al Ahram World Open.
Only two places were known - defending champion Amr Shabana
and 2002 champion David Palmer, at the top and the bottom of
the draw. For the rest it was wait and see.
For once, many players will have been hoping to see their name come
out against England's fourth-seeded James Willstrop - not
because they thought they could beat him, but because they knew the
former world junior champion had already withdrawn due to illness.
As it happened, the lucky recipient was Ramy Ashour - the
current world junior champion ... what a match that might have been.
Another former junior champion, Karim Darwish, was drawn
against compatriot Wael El Hindi, and they will do battle
under the pyramids tomorrow. In fact the top half of the draw is
stacked with many of the home favourites, and two all-Egyptian
quarter-finals is a possibility.
Down at the bottom end, it's the Australians all together, with
Palmer, Anthony Ricketts and Cameron Pilley in close
proximity, with Stewart Boswell as a potential semi-final
opponent for one of that trio.
After several early-round clashes last year, France's Thierry
Lincou and Gregory Gaultier can't meet until what would
be a repeat of the English Open final, both taking on qualifiers in
the first round.
England's Peter Nicol, playing in his last event, starts his
campaign against Graham Ryding, the Canadian who put Nicol
out at the quarter-final stage of the 2004 World Open.
Had Willstrop been able to play, he could have been facing another
second round clash with his Pontefract training partner Lee
Beachill, but should Beachill overcome qualifier Borja Golan
he will face Ramy Ashour.
