Thus spoke Jahangir Khan

• Every winning streak will have to end sometime.
• Everything is changing in squash. Lots of television coverage and the game has become very professional.
• Generally the younger generation are not hard working. They will have to put in more effort to achieve results in tournaments. most of them can perform well but they cannot deliver when they play abroad.
• However, there is no assurance that we can produce world class players so soon. Only time can tell.
• I began playing in the senior circuit when I was 15 and won the world senior amateur title the same year.
• I wanted to start a proper academy and recruit juniors from all over Pakistan following my retirement after the World Open in 1993 but there was no support.
• In that World Open final, Ross got me. It was exactly five years and eight months. I was unbeaten for another nine months after that defeat.
• It wasn't my plan to create such a record. All I did was put in the effort to win every match I played and it went on for weeks, months and years until my defeat to Ross Norman in Toulouse in 1986.
• It's very difficult to do something without the support of the association. That was the reason why I did not get involved in coaching in Pakistan.
• My unbeaten record and the 10 British Open wins have not been equalled.
• Nicol has great potential and there is a huge gap between her and the rest of the juniors. She needs to concentrate full time on the professional circuit from now on and it is the only way for her to realize her potential.
• Squash has been my life and I owe a lot to the sport.
• Squash has the credentials to become an olympic event and our goal is to see the sport in the 2008 Beijing Olympics. We are working towards this and will keep trying even if our bid is not successful.
• Squash was my livelihood and as in business, I had to stay on top.
• Superior fitness is one of the reasons why I remained unbeaten for so long and it helped me to win six world titles and 10 British Open titles.
• That was one of my bad days and that was the day Ross chose to play his best. It was a little disappointing, but I got over it eventually.
• The pressure began to mount as I kept winning every time and people were anxious to see if I could be beaten.
• To be the best, I had to work harder than everyone else.
• Without hard work and discipline it is difficult to be a top professional.
• You can't go on winning all the time.
