Anahat Singh Biography
Anahat Singh is an Indian squash player from New Delhi who rose rapidly through the junior ranks to become one of the country’s most promising young pros.
Early life and backgroundAnahat Singh was born on 13 March 2008 in New Delhi and grew up in the city where she continues to be based. She attended The British School, New Delhi. Her parents are Tani Vadehra, an interior designer, and Gursharan Singh, who works as a lawyer. Anahat has a younger sister, Amira. Both of her parents played field hockey when they were younger, and an uncle in the family played competitive tennis as a youth.
Anahat’s first exposure to racquet sports came through badminton; she began playing at around five years old. She also accompanied her sister to nearby squash courts and soon shifted her primary focus from badminton to squash after early success in junior competitions.
Career
Singh’s junior career features a long list of international junior titles across Europe, North America and Asia. Her early 2019 season included wins at the U11 British Junior Open in Birmingham, the European Junior Open in the Czech Republic, the Dutch Junior Open in Amsterdam and the Scottish Junior Open in Edinburgh. She continued that momentum with victories at the US Junior Open in Philadelphia in 2021 and the German Junior Open in Hamburg in early 2022.
In 2022 and 2023 she collected multiple continental junior titles, including age-group Asian Junior Championships, and became the youngest Indian squash player to compete at the 2022 Commonwealth Games in Birmingham. She added the British Junior Open U15 title in January 2023 and the U17 Asian Junior Championship in August 2023 to her growing list of honours. In November 2023 she became national champion.
Transitioning to senior-level competition, Singh began claiming PSA titles in 2024. That year she won a series of events on the domestic and international Challenger circuit, including tournaments in Mumbai, Karachi, Colombo, Kolkata and Australia. Her 2024 campaign was remarkable for its consistency: she amassed nine PSA titles and finished the year with 38 wins in 40 matches, ending 2024 ranked world number 82.
The upward trajectory continued into 2025. In January she captured her third British Junior Open title and contributed to India winning medals at Asian junior team competition. Early in the year she won the SRFI Indian Tour in Chennai and the Indian Open in Mumbai, moves that pushed her world ranking higher and qualified her for her first World Squash Championships, where she recorded a first-round victory over world number 28 Marina Stefanoni. At the British Open qualifiers she beat Marie Stephan to reach the main draw and won a first-round match against Lisa Aitken.
Her 2025 season also featured major recognition from the PSA and strong results in doubles competition. She received PSA’s Young Player of the Year and Challenger Player of the Year awards and won gold in women’s doubles and mixed doubles at the Asian Doubles Championships. She completed a sweep of U15, U17 and U19 Asian junior titles by mid-2025 and earned a bronze medal at the World Junior Championships after reaching the semi-finals.
On the senior tour in 2025, Singh produced breakthrough performances at higher-level PSA events. She reached the semi-finals of the Canadian Open with wins over top-20 and top-10 opponents, made a deep run at the Bega Open, and secured victories at the China Open and SRFI Indian Open in Chennai, defeating experienced players including Joshna Chinappa. By late 2025 she had climbed into the world top 30, reaching world number 29, and collected her 14th PSA title at the HCL Squash Tour Chennai.
Coaching and support
Anahat’s development has included work with several coaches. Early guidance came from Amjad Khan and Ashraf Hussain, followed by training under Ritwick Bhattacharya during her junior years. Later she trained with Stéphane Galifi and Grégory Gaultier, and Saurav Ghosal formally joined her coaching team in 2024.
Public profile
Singh is recognized both for her junior dominance and for a rapid ascent on the senior circuit. Her string of junior continental titles, multiple PSA Challenger trophies, national crown and awards from the PSA and Indian honours bodies have established her as one of Indian squash’s leading young players. She has also been acknowledged with a World Book of Records Certificate of Excellence.
