FQR: Karl Grossey UNR v (q3) George Barth (USA) WR 1802 (44-year-old, CH 1456 in 2007)

Barth first played on the ITF Pro Circuit in 1992, i.e. 21 years ago. Back in 2007, he retired against Greg Howe, when both of them were still in their 30s.

Barth is, unsurprisingly, the oldest ranked player right now.

Hmm.  1802 ?  Is that his ranking or his Date of Birth  wink

Mr Barth - if you are reading this, I am only joking.

A singles ranking at 44, eh? Hurrah for Mr Barth. Might just find myself cheering on the non-Brit on this occasion .... (sorry, Mr Grossey, nothing personal)

Thanks for that post. Really pleased for him. Karl's been playing in a couple of strange choice tournaments and not had the greatest draws. Nice to make the MD in Senegal smile

Having qualified for a Futures main draw at his 6th attempt, Karl may have just been handed a decent opportunity to pick up his first ranking point ...

L32: (Q) Karl Grossey UNR v (WC) Phenyo Matong (BOT) WR 1630 (CH 1568 in Dec)
