- Egyptian three-time World Champion Ramy Ashour has withdrawn from the
upcoming J.P. Morgan Tournament of Champions due to injury.
The 29-year-old, a three-time winner of the event that gets underway
inside New York's Grand Central Terminal this Thursday (Jan 12),
conceded the final of the 2016 World Championship last November due to
injury and has failed to recover in time to compete this week.
As a result German number one Simon Rösner moves up inside the main
draw to number eight seed with Egyptian Zahed Mohamed moving into the
main draw from qualification, where a first round encounter with
current World Champion Karim Abdel Gawad awaits.
