Episode 393 Matias Knudsen

from In squash - The Podcast · host In Squash Podcast

One of the PSA's most exciting young talents, Matias Knudsen, makes his In Squash Pod debut on Ep. 393. We take a deep dive into his breakout season, what it means to earn direct entry into the World Championships, and how close he is to breaking into the sport’s biggest events. Matias also reflects on his college days at Drexel under the legendary “General” John White, and why the U.S. college pathway was the right move for his development. Of course, we couldn’t skip over that trick shot—Matias walks us through one of the most creative points you’ll see on tour, and shares a few more moments where instinct and imagination took over. We also explore the influence of Colombian legend Miguel Rodriguez on his game, and what it’s like preparing to face him on one of squash’s biggest stages. Great chat!!
