Daniel’s older brother Marcin is a pro at my local courts, and he also got into the qualy draw just for showing up at the qualies sign-in. I’m not sure why our very own Charlie02123 can’t use the same strategy to get into a qualies draw somewhere instead of going all the way to Spain to perhaps get into a futures draw.

A shout out! You know just how to make a fella blush.

Seriously, "perhaps get into a futures draw" is kind of an insult to the word perhaps. It's totally not happening.

However, I've been reading this blog from a guy who's been playing on the tour for over 10 years and as far as I can tell has never won more than a small handful of qualifying Futures matches in the whole time. He makes money from stringing rackets and playing the occasional money tournament. He was in the qualifying draw in Newport because it didn't even fill up! Ridic. Same deal with one in Canada. I am SO all over that jazz.

My master plan is seeing if some newspapers might publish a story about my "Quest to become the worst professional tennis player in history." All I need is a wildcard into a challenger and I'm guaranteed a point and thus a ranking.

But enough about me!!!

These stories are SO. FUN. This is a really tremendous contribution to TAT. Thank you so much for writing this for us!
