Peter Marshall was once the future of English squash — World No.2 at just 23 years old, the only man pushing Jansher Khan during his era of dominance and the most recognisable player on tour with his double-handed technique. Then, almost overnight, his career collapsed.In this deeply personal and revealing conversation, Peter shares the full untold story: rising through the junior ranks under Jonah Barrington, battling chronic fatigue syndrome at the peak of his career, refusing a £250,000 insurance payout that would have ended his playing days forever and mounting two incredible comebacks against all odds.We discuss identity, ambition, illness, psychology, overtraining and what it truly takes to return when the world has moved on. Peter reflects on playing Jansher and Jahangir, the brutal training methods of the 90s, the rise of Egyptian squash and how he eventually rediscovered his love for the game.------The Squash Player Podcast brings you long-form, in-depth conversations with the biggest names in the sport — exploring mindset, performance, adversity, culture, training and the stories behind the world’s best players.Previous guests include Ali Farag, Gina Kennedy, Mohamed ElShorbagy, Joey Barrington, Joel Makin, George Parker and more.
