ASB: Around the world together with Lincou and Gaultier
ASB - squash court constructor and inventor of the four-sided
glass court wants to strike a new path in squash together with
the French top stars Thierry Lincou (world ranking No. 3) and
Gregory Gaultier (No. 8). A path of success!
The squash market in France is experiencing a substantial
increase, also due to the success of these two outstanding
players. Lincou – world champion 2004 and leader of the world
ranking 2005, as well as Gaultier – newly crowned triple
European Champion – are also internationally well known.
Wherever the thirty years old „model athlete“ Lincou and „young
wild“ Gaultier (23) appear, top squash games and sold out
spectator tiers are guaranteed.
Both world stars have tested the newly developed glass floor
intensely with a match in the ASB trial hall in Traunstein.
Their result: „Impressive, I had never considered it possible
that I will ever play on glass“, Gaultier said on behalf of both
enthusiastic squashers. Gaultier had become German Team Champion
together with Stuttgart shortly before.
ASB is proud having engaged two exceptional and very likeable
sportsmen, who will promote the high quality of the ASB products
and who will act as international ambassadors for the company“
said Horst Babinsky, squash court pioneer and founder of ASB.
„It is essential for court innovations, – like the glass floor –
to get honest feedback from top players and to enhance the
product together with them“.
As new ambassadors, Lincou and Gaultier are also included in
ASB’s promotional concept. They will also help the company to
develop new products and to strengthen ASB’s world market
leadership.
