Ned Marks shares his unconventional squash journey. Starting as an "average" high school player in Greenwich, Connecticut, Marks shifted focus from football to squash in his senior year. This dedication led him to Denison University's club team, where he honed his skills and developed crucial discipline. Post-graduation, Marks pursued professional squash, briefly joining the PSA tour before finding success in the Pro Squash Tour (PST). The PST, founded to increase squash's visibility, introduced innovative rules and attracted seasoned players. Marks reached a career-high ranking of fourth on the PST, competing against legends like John White and David Palmer. Despite the PST's challenges, including a ban from the PSA, it provided Marks with invaluable opportunities. Following his PST experience, he transitioned to pro doubles and continued playing in tournaments like the annual event in Bermuda. Marks' story highlights a squash path built on dedication, adaptability, and a passion for the sport. Thanks for sitting down with us, Ned!
