Beng Hee won the world junior championship as we all knew he would. His game had changed a little and his father said that Harvey had made him tougher. We spoke in the garden of the Grand Resort in Hurghada. In the juniors I used to get through the first two rounds very easily. In the seniors I would be struggling in the second round like I was against Alex Gough in Hurghada.
Seniors are a lot stronger.
As a junior I was never fit, my squash was good enough to beat the rest of the juniors. But if I played a senior it was a lot harder and the matches were a lot longer. Seniors volley a lot more than the juniors. I found it very difficult, after winning the world junior title to go on to the senior tour. There is a very big gap and I had to do a lot of catching up.
