You would hope that a world number one would improve coverage but Peter Nicol never seemed to dominate the BBC but maybe they will take more notice now with consistency from a range of players at the top.  

The highlights are excellent shots, I see what you mean about Nick's deception, some of his shots look very unorthadox in the final but hugely effective, just out of interest how do people think he rates relative to previous number ones like nicol, power or shabana?

having nick as the new world number one will certainly make a difference. he also will generate a pretty good image as he is a great sport and does the sport, his country and himself proud.

his form at the moment is bullet proof and if he can keep going like this, he is going to be seriously playing with the mind of all those who play him.

he has added some subtlety and deception to his game over the last 12 months and along with his great fitness and the confidence that he has been building, he is nigh unbeatable at present.
