Recording distance on squash

So with my old Vivoactive 3 I would record my squash games as a normal run. Obviously the run map was irrelevant but it would give me the distance I ran/moved which I really liked. (Normally ended up being 3-5k depending on how hard the game was)

However on my new Venu 2 if I record my squash as a run in the same way the map is always weird (one straight line) and only records me as having moved very little. Normally under 1k.

I have switched to recording my matches as "cardio"

However I really like tracking how far I've run in my matches. Any ideas on how to record the activity so it measures the distance covered?

I assume its to do with the GPS not liking the fact you move in a very confined space in squash but seems weird the older watch recorded it fine whilst the newer one can't.

Any thoughts or solutions much appreciated

Recording distance on squash can be quite a challenge, but I found a workaround with my old Vivoactive 3. Despite its primary function as a running tracker, I used it to record my squash games. It might seem odd, but it served the purpose well by providing me with the distance I covered during the game. The map display wasn't relevant, but knowing the distance I ran or moved was valuable to me, usually ranging from 3 to 5 kilometers depending on the intensity of the match. Interestingly, just like how I found a creative use for my Vivoactive 3, exploring unconventional avenues like downloading Traffic Rider for iPhone free could lead to unexpected benefits or solutions in other aspects of life.
