LOL good one. Could this be the only Future in the world to have nobody from the country it's taking part in on the entry list or in qualifying?
Maybe Issa Cuma WR 1554 (who got a WC and beat an unranked Kenyan here last year), Issa Karorero WR 1451 (who got a WC and beat an American who is now ranked) or Hassan Murisho (who has never won a Futures match) already knew they were going to get WCs again and we'll see them in the main draw.

A bit of luck for Richard with Bella pulling out and a decent attempt byPhilip, who as our only ranked player here could have done without getting the worst draw!
