Peter Nicol, born on 5 April 1973, is a former professional squash player from Scotland who represented first Scotland and then England in international squash. In 1998, while still competing for Scotland, he became the first player from the United Kingdom since Jonah Barrington to hold the World No. 1 ranking. During his career he won one World Open title, two British Open titles and four Commonwealth Games gold medals. He is considered one of the leading international squash players of his time, and his change of national allegiance is a notable feature of his career.
