2020–21 PSA World Tour
Squash tournament
The 2020–21 PSA World Tour is the international squash tour organised circuit organized by the Professional Squash Association (PSA) for the 2020–21 squash season. It's the 6th PSA season since the merger of PSA and WSA associations in 2015.
The most important tournaments in the series are the Men's and Women's PSA World Championship . The tour also features two circuits of regular events - PSA World Tour (formerly PSA World Series), which feature the highest prize money and the best fields; and PSA Challenger Tour with prize money ranging $5,500–$30,000. In the middle of the year, the PSA World Tour tour is concluded by the Men's and Women's PSA World Tour Finals in Cairo , the season-ending championships for the top 8 rated players from World Tour level tournaments.
Overview
PSA World Tour changes
Starting in August 2018, PSA revamped its professional tour structure in two individual circuits; PSA World Tour and PSA Challenger Tour.[ 1]
PSA World Tour (formerly PSA World Series) will comprise most important tournaments in prize money for more experienced and higher-ranked players, including PSA World Championships and PSA World Tour Finals, labelled as following:
PSA World Tour Platinum — 48-player draws — $165,000
PSA World Tour Gold — 24-player draws — $97,500–$100,000
PSA World Tour Silver — 24-player draws — $67,500–$70,000
PSA World Tour Bronze — 24-player draws — $45,000–$47,500
PSA Challenger Tour tournaments will offer a $6,000–$30,000 prize-money, ideal circuit for less-experienced and upcoming players, that will include the following tiers:
PSA Challenger Tour 30 — $30,000
PSA Challenger Tour 20 — $20,000
PSA Challenger Tour 10 — $12,000
PSA Challenger Tour 5 — $6,000
PSA Challenger Tour 3 — $3,000 (starting August 2020)
