Egypt's world champion Amr Shabana rounds off his second complete year as world number one, according to the March Dunlop PSA Men's World Squash Rankings, published today (Friday) by the Professional Squash Association.

The 28-year-old from Cairo first topped the list in April 2006 - taking over from Canada's Jonathon Power - since when he has won nine PSA Tour titles, including the 2007 World Open in Bermuda, and appeared in 12 finals.

After a wrist injury layoff at the end of last year, Shabana began his 2008 campaign by reaching the PACE Canadian Classic final in Toronto last month.

Still snapping at Shabana's heels is compatriot Ramy Ashour, the 20-year-old who beat his fellow countryman in the Toronto final - and now celebrates his tenth successive month in second place.

James Willstrop leaps two places to No4 to become the highest-ranked Englishman for the first time for well over a year. The 24-year-old Yorkshireman is enjoying a sparkling run of form - including winning two Tour titles (the Mamut English Open and Case Swedish Open) in three successive final appearances - as well as successfully retaining his British National crown last month.
