The 2025-26 PSA Squash Tour Finals will bring together 16 of the world's best squash players for the first time in the tournament's history in Paris, France, where four days of intense competition will take place from June 17 to 20, 2026, at the Centquatre-Paris.

A fully glass-enclosed squash court, the ASB ShowCourt, will be installed at the Centquatre-Paris, also known as Le 104, a vibrant cultural and artistic center located in northeast Paris. This will be the first time since 2013 that the PSA Squash Tour Finals have been held in Europe.

Paris has previously hosted several high-level PSA Squash Tour tournaments, including the Parvis du Palais de Tokyo in the shadow of the Eiffel Tower and the Cirque d'Hiver Bouglione, which sold out in 2023 and 2024 as part of the Paris Squash series.

“We are delighted to be hosting the PSA Squash Tour Finals in Paris for the first time, and Le 104 promises to be the perfect venue to witness the best squash players competing in the final event of the 2025-2026 season,” said Alex Gough, PSA Managing Director.

“Recent events like Paris Squash and the Nantes International Squash Open have shown us the enthusiasm of the French public for squash. The passion for the sport is fantastic, and we can’t wait to see the excitement surrounding the PSA Squash Tour Finals in France.”

“We are thrilled to be co-hosting this event with the Paris Squash Project, and I would like to thank the teams at the French Squash Federation and Le 104 for their support in organizing the tournament.” The PSA Squash Tour finals always provide a perfect conclusion to the season and will bring one of the most captivating campaigns in the history of the sport to a spectacular close this June.

 

Philippe Doyle, President of the Paris Squash Project, said: “We are extremely proud to host the PSA Squash Tour Finals in Paris and at Le 104 for the first time. Paris has already demonstrated its passion for top-level squash, and hosting the season finale here represents a significant step in the continued development of the sport in the city.”

“Welcoming the 16 best players in the world in a knockout format promises four days of intense and captivating competition for fans in France and around the world. Together with the PSA and the French Squash Federation, we look forward to delivering an unforgettable experience and reaffirming Paris’s status as a leading destination for professional squash.”

The President of the French Squash Federation, Julien Muller, said: “We are delighted that the PSA Squash Tour Finals will be held in Paris.” Hosting one of the most prestigious squash tournaments in our capital is a testament to the considerable work done in recent years to develop the sport, both at the amateur and professional levels.

“This is a unique opportunity to showcase our sport in one of the world’s most prestigious cities, to inspire the next generation of players, and to reach a new audience. We look forward to working closely with the PSA and the Paris Squash Project in the coming months.”

 

The tournament comprises a men's and a women's competition, each featuring eight players. To participate, players must win a prestigious Diamond title, while the reigning world champions are automatically qualified. The remaining spots are awarded to the highest-ranked players in the Road to Tour Finals rankings, with points awarded at all PSA World Series tournaments during the season.

Frenchman Victor Crouin, the world number one, currently holds third place in the Road to Tour Finals rankings and sixth in the world rankings after his most significant victory to date at the Texas Open last month.

 

This year, the tournament will be a single-elimination format, unlike the group stage format traditionally used in the PSA Squash Tour Finals. The top-ranked player in the Road to Tour Finals rankings will face the eighth-ranked player in the first round, the second-ranked player will face the seventh, the third-ranked player will face the sixth, and the fourth-ranked player will face the fifth.

The tournament will then continue with the semifinals and final, where the world’s best players will attempt to repeat the feat of defending champions Joel Makin and Nouran Gohar, who last lifted the trophies in Toronto, Canada.

 

World No. 1 Hania El Hammamy and Mostafa Asal have already qualified for the tournament following their victories at the Diamond-level CIB Egypt Open in September, while the race remains on to determine who will join them in Paris.

All matches will be best-of-five, and the ranking points system has been modified, with the event winners earning a maximum of 1,500 bonus points.

Players will compete for a total of $710,000 in prize money, and all the action will be broadcast live on SQUASHTV and by PSA’s broadcast partners.
