France's Crouin says LA 2028 will be a breakthrough moment for squash and the cycle's top goal.

France's top male player Victor Crouin has said that squash's debut at the Los Angeles 2028 Olympics will fundamentally reshape the sport's public profile. The three-time European champion argued that the visibility squash has long chased will finally arrive through its inclusion in the Olympic programme.

As the LA28 framework takes shape, Crouin noted that a growing number of elite players are treating the Games as the defining target of the current cycle, adjusting their training and tournament schedules accordingly. He expects the Olympic spotlight to benefit the wider squash ecosystem, from sponsorship and junior participation to media coverage.

For amateur fans, the shift suggests rising international attention on squash in the coming years, making the LA28 qualification pathway and related events worth following closely.
