April 23, 2012
- World #3 Nick Matthew has issued a statement on Twitter regarding a negative comment he reportedly made about the refereeing during his April 12th El Gouna International Open semifinal match against Ramy Ashour.

Ashour won the match 11-9 in the fourth in 75 minutes and went on to beat James Willstrop for the title.

The $115,000 Super Series event was held at the Abu Tig Marina in El Gouna, Egypt.


Matthew's Statement:

"Sorry if it caused anyone any offence. No excuses but the heat of the moment can sometimes be an emotional place!

"Feel like it's about time I apologised for my '2 bounces in Egypt' comment. Was out of frustration, nothing else & totally unjustified."
