Emily Whitlock (born 15 February 1994) is an English-born professional squash player who represented Wales at the Commonwealth Games. She reached a career-high world ranking of World No. 12 in November 2017.

Career

Whitlock made solid progress up the world rankings, capturing three successive titles at the start of 2012 and repeated the feat at the end of the year. Five titles followed in 2013 and 2014 before she lifted her first PSA Challenger 15 title at the Courtcare Open in May 2015. Her performances there did not go unnoticed and she joined the elite top 20 players in the world a month later.

Whitlock represented the Welsh team at the 2022 Commonwealth Games in Birmingham, England, where she participated in the women's singles and mixed doubles with Peter Creed. In the singles she reached the quarter-finals before being eliminated by Sarah-Jane Perry of England.
