The Professional Squash Association World Tour Platinum competition has been scheduled for January 13 to 21 in the Vanderbilt Hall at New York City's Grand Central Terminal.

It is set to mark the return of one of the highest-profile squash tournaments in the world after the 2021 event was called off as a result of the COVID-19 crisis.

J.P Morgan will remain as the event's sponsor after it signed a new three-year title sponsorship with tournament organisers last year.

"I’d like to thank J.P. Morgan for their unwavering support and commitment to the Tournament of Champions during these unprecedented times, and I look forward to welcoming these world-class athletes back to Grand Central Terminal for what promises to be an enthralling week of action," said tournament promoter and Squash Engine President John Nimick.

"The decision not to hold the 2021 edition of our tournament was a difficult one, but rendered necessary by the COVID-19 pandemic, which made holding a top tier event in a commuter station untenable.

"However, I’m sure the 2022 instalment of the J.P. Morgan Tournament of Champions will be the most captivating yet, and I hope the 24th edition at Grand Central plays a part in the return of New York City as the greatest city in the world."

PSA World Tour events have been severely impacted by the coronavirus pandemic.

The Tour is due to return next month with the Black Ball Squash Open in Cairo.
