RE: Week 20 - Challenger ($75,000+H) - Busan, Korea (Hard)


I'm intrigued to know how Jamie D can afford  to travel the world playing Challenger level doubles.  He can't come close to paying his airline and hotel bills with his prize money. His winnings this year are $6.4k, and I can't imagine he's in the big league when it comes to sponsorship.  Is he independently wealthy?

Next year he will have been on the circuit for 20 years.....

He's coaching Gilles Muller isn't he?

SF:  (3) Jamie Delgado & John-Patrick Smith (AUS) CR 199 (112+87) defeated (WC) Gong Mao-Xin & Peng Hsien-Yin (CHN/TPE) CR 424 (302+22) by 6-2 3-6 [10-6] smile 

The match to decide whom they'll face in the final will not be played until tomorrow, but it will be either "the Ratis" (1) or a pair of Korean wild cards, Hyeon Chung & Yong-Kyu Lim, who despatched the Russian fourth seeds, Baluda & Kravchuk, in three sets yesterday.

Chung (just checked his ATP page) turns 18 next week. And beat Weintraub to make the singles SF as well as the doubles SF. Not bad.
