From her back-to-back Women's World Championships in 2005, 2006 and 2008, to being the
youngest ever squash player to embrace the #1 spot, Nicol Ann David is the legendary undisputed world
no. 1 squash player. Nicol’s unprecedented feats have certainly redefined ‘success’ in the Malaysian
sports arena. This enthralling squash player has not failed to constantly dazzle the international squash
scene.
Nicol was born on 26 August 1983 in the Pearl of the Orient- Penang, Malaysia. She is a
daughter to Desmond David, an engineer and Ann Marie David, a now retired school teacher. She has
two sisters named Lianne Marie and Cheryl Therese, both of whom are also accomplished squash players
at the national level. Nicol scored a striking 7As in her Penilaian Menengah Rendah(PMR) and 9As in the
Sijil Pelajaran Malaysia(SPM)- a living testament to the fact that one can not only excel at both academic
and sports, but also have a balance family life.
Nicol David is well known for her modest ways and strong family values. The triple world
champion is currently based in Amsterdam, Netherlands. She is coached by Liz Irving- a former world
number 2 and 1997 World Doubles Squash Champion.
Describing herself as a carefree, outgoing and adventurous person, Nicol feels that a player
has to be completely passionate about the game, and be willing to make sacrifices for the game if they
want to excel in it. When asked what plans she had in mind for after her playing career, the 5-times
Malaysian Sportswoman of the Year Award recipient said that she hoped to be part of getting squash
into the Olympics and making squash known throughout the world; not forgetting setting up a squash
academy for kids in Malaysia.
