A 19 year old British guy, with no LTA rating, and who has never played in a single ITF junior tournament, plays his first ever pro match in Morocco.

He loses 6-0 6-0 in the first round of qualifying to a 17 year old Moroccan, also playing his first ever pro match, and who has also never played in an ITF junior tournament. 

How weird is that......................

I thought you had to have an LTA rating of a certain level to be allowed to enter Futures Qualies.

Nope that's only for GB futures qualies (5.2)

Any of us could turn up for an African futures qualies and a weak European futures qualies and get in the draw. I'm planning to do so next year, maybe one of the French ones...I'll try and find a tourney where there are some Brits I can interview + report on, after I've been double-bagelled in rd1.

Only if there is a cut.

There is no cut out here, meaning anyone would be able to play qualies as long as they had an IPIN.

Even if there is no cut, you still have to be a 5.2 min to play GB futures qualies.

Trust me, my friend is 6.1 and he's tried several times without success

Okay, you'll know better. Maybe the LTA doesn't give IPINs unless you are 5.2?
