Zac Alexander (born 11 February 1989) is an Australian professional squash player. He reached a career-high PSA ranking of World No. 36 in September 2012[1] [2] and has won a total of 26 PSA titles.[3]

Zac won a men's doubles squash gold medal at the 2018 Commonwealth Games on the Gold Coast, teamed up with David Palmer defeating Daryl Selby and Adrian Waller of England (11–9, 3-11, 11-6).[4] Zac also won a silver medal at the World Doubles in Darwin in 2016 and a gold medal at the Malaysian Open Doubles Championships later the same year.[3] This has been a very successful period for Zac who made the Australian doubles team for the 2014 Commonwealth Games in Glasgow. However, he was forced to leave the games early when the Court of Arbitration for Sport ruled the higher-ranked singles player (Matthew Karwalski) should take his spot.[5] [6] [7]

In the lead up to the 2018 Commonwealth Games on the Gold Coast, Zac dominated squash tournaments for the 2016-2017 season in Australia:[8]
