My next trip is soon, Wednesday in fact, for the first Pro Circuit event of the year, a 10K for men and a 25K for women at Hillsborough Community College in Tampa. The semis and finals coincide with an 18-and-under Florida section designated for boys and girls that we've attended for six of the last seven years. We missed last year due to our trip to the Australian Open. My husband and I run the desk, so I don't get to see as much tennis as I would like, but this year we're going early to watch some of the Futures action.
The men's qualifying is complete; for the draws and schedule, see the Pro Circuit home page. I've put together a short slide show featuring five of the eight men's qualifiers. I don't have photos of Christopher Brown, Ruben Gonzales or Adam Kennedy. Two of the qualifiers are juniors: 15-year-old Rhyne Williams and 17-year-old Reid Carleton. Carleton, a finalist at the recent Winter Nationals, didn't drop a set in his four qualifying victories, while Williams battled through two three-setters to earn his place in the main draw. Pavel Chekhov has aged out of the juniors, with last month's Orange Bowl his last event and he will meet wild card recipient Tyler Hochwalt, 17, in the main draw. Donald Young also received a wild card into the main draw.
The women's qualifying is only a 64 draw, not a 128, and it doesn't end until tomorrow. Juniors Allie Will, Ashley Weinhold, Sorana Cirstea and Lauren Albanese are all still in the mix.
