The International Tennis Federation announced today the names of the eight players and one alternative in each draw that have been selected to compete in the World Tennis Tour Junior Finals 22-26 October in Chengdu China.

As always is the case for this event, even this year with an increase in the ITF ranking list to the winner from 850 to 1000, several top players have rejected their invitations. ITF World No. 1s Julieta Pareja of the United States and Ivan Ivanov van Bulgaria do not play, nor is Roland Garros Girls Champion Lilli Tagger not[5] from Austria and 2024 Final Champion Emerson Jones[6] from Australia.

In addition to Ivanov, Henry Bernet from Switzerland, the Australian Open Boys Champion and No. 9 in the submissions, refused his invitation. Roland Garros champion Niels McDonald, no. 11 In the input power, chose not to accept the position of alternative, so it fell on Tabata.

Last week I came by this Kansas City Star article About the book, entitled “Breaking Serve”, the head coach Michael Center of the University of Texas recently published. The focus of the book is on the FBI Varsity Blues scandal that resulted in the resignation of Center from his position and ultimately a prison sentence. Center, who was at the University of Kansas before he coached in Texas, explains the circumstances of his arrest and why he pleaded guilty, and how he has remained involved with tennis since his release.
