Rowan Elaraby joined the PSA World Tour in 2016 and went onto lift her maiden PSA World Tour title at the first time of asking. Four titles in her first two years saw Elaraby move inside the world’s top 50 in her fledgling career and reached the top 25 in early 2019. Her rise-up the rankings continued through the 2019-2020 season, as she broke into the top 16 for the first time in April 2020, thanks to some great performances throughout, including a last eight position in the U.S. Open Championships, a feat she would also achieve later in the season at the Windy City Open. Elaraby started 2021 strongly, with a quarter final appearance at the El Gouna International, and she followed that by also making it to the last eight at both the British Open and the Egyptian Open, en route to breaking the top 10 in the rankings for the first time. In April 2022, she won the Carol Weymuller Open, a bronze level tournament, and the biggest prize of her career. Those results pushed her inside the world’s top eight. The youngster continued to improve in 2024. Her biggest result came in the Paris Squash in September when she reached the semi-finals of the Platinum event. She also made it to the last four in the Manchester Open in May.
