Unsurprisingly Egypt is doing well.

 media thinks it starts going out of control because Fayrouz beat Nour El-Shirbeny in the QF

I mean Egypt has 7/16 seeded men and 9/16 seeded women at this tournament. They have become by far the most dominant nation in this sport.

On the PSA website, when you click on 'Top Seeds' for a tournament, you see a list of athletes with their flag next to it.  (Minor quibble: I wish they would have the flags next to the names on the Draw/Match pages as well for easy reference.)

 

But I noticed that the Malaysian athletes just have a generic image next to their name instead of the Malaysian flag.  Do any of you know why this might be?
