Kanzy Emad El Defrawy is a promising young Egyptian with a wealth of talent at her disposal.
She won her first Tour title in September 2014 and, after a runner-up finish at the Emerson RC Pro Series, reached the world's top 40 for the first time.
In 2015, El Defrawy continued to add titles to her collection after she won the Sentara Martha Jefferson Hospital Open when she downed Canada’s Hollie Naughton in straight games in the final.
The Egyptian then went onto win the Richmond Open the following year when she beat Misaki Kobayashi over four games after not dropping a game on her way to the final. 2016 then continued to bring tournament wins for El Defrawy as she won the Jordan Squash Federation Amman Open before securing back-to-back titles at the Play Squash Women’s Open and LiveStuff Open.
More successive titles were to follow in 2017 when she won the Delaware Women’s Open beating Australia’s Sarah Cardwell over three games before going to beat Zeina Mickawy at the following tournament in the Bahl & Gaynor Cincinnati Gaynor Cup.
