| contents | We introduce a compact probabilistic model for two-player and two-team (four-player) squash matches, along with a practical skill-comparison rule derived from point-scoring probabilities. Using recorded shot types and court locations, we analyze how shot distributions differ between professional-level and intermediate-level players. Our analysis shows that professional players use a wider variety of shots and favor backcourt play to maintain control, while intermediate players concentrate more on mid-court shots, generate more errors, and exercise less positional control. These results quantify strategic differences in squash, offer a simple method to compare player and team skill, and provide actionable insights for sports analytics and coaching. |
