World No. 1 Mohamed Elshorbagy heads to Dubai for the PSA World Series Finals from May 24-28, having broken his own record for the highest ever points average.

The Egyptian extended his reign atop the PSA Men’s World Rankings to a fifth consecutive month courtesy of victory at the recent El Gouna International – his sixth succesive PSA World Series title.

The 25-year-old has dominated the PSA World Tour during the 2015/16 season, taking six of seven possible World Series crowns, to record a points average of 2,240.000 – eclipsing the previous record of 2,150.000 he set just last month – and remains No. 1 amongst a top ten that contains an unprecedented six Egyptian players.

Joining Elshorbagy inside the top-10 are Omar Mosaad (4), younger brother Marwan ElShorbagy (7), Tarek Momen (8), Karim Abdel Gawad (9) and Ali Farag (10), the 24-year-old Harvard graduate who joins the world’s elite top ten for the first time in his career after a breakthrough season.

Mosaad will be the second Egyptian in the elite eight-man field for the season-ending PSA Dubai World Series Finals, which will be staged in Downtown Dubai, with Burj Khalifa, the world’s tallest building, and The Dubai Fountain, the world’s tallest performing fountain, in the background.

German World No. 9 Simon Rosner became the last man to punch his Dubai ticket when he secured his place in the last eight of the El Gouna International – the final PSA World Series tournament of the season.

A place in the quarterfinals at the Red Sea resort was the only way he could have ensured a place in the Dubai field.
