It means Special Exemption - it's reserved for players who make the semifinals of the tournament the prior week - it can only be used for tourneys the same or lower level. In other words, someone who made the SF at Estoril cannot get into Rome via Special Exemption, but someone who made Rome SF might be able to get into Hamburg Special Exemption, or someone who made the SF at Hamburg might be able to get into St. Poelten on a Special Exemption.
Sorry for my not-very-helpful explanation but maybe it was a little helpful  |

Re: entry list
Yes, Hamburg is already promoting Agassi's return to Rothenbaum... so there must be some truth about it  |

I've had this discussion with GWH earlier last week (when Monaco played in Munich) and he was saying the same if I remember correctly. However, I'm not completely sure about the "levels" as it worked for Sanguinetti playing a SF in Vienna to get a SE to Madrid TMS the following week, to name a rare example.
However, for somebody who didn't know what SE is, your explanation was helpful for sure and I wouldn't worry about it |

For a player to get a special exempt, he must meet two requirements: 1) be entered in the qualifying tournament for the next week's event; & 2) still be playing in the first tournament at the time of the qualifying draw for the next tournament (usually Friday). It is not, as some people think, an extra wild card for the tournament organizers to give out. (There was quite a bit of complaining in the Estoril forum about Robredo not receiving a SE until I explained this key point--& the fact that he met neither of the requirements.)
As for levels, the second tournament in most cases must be the same level or one level lower or higher. (examples: Week 1=ISG/AMS, Week 2=AMS; 1=IS/ISG, 2=ISG; 1:IS/AMS; 2:IS). The rules are more complicated for challengers; geography of the two tournaments is taken into account. |

Thanks, Smucav. Incredibly good explanation exactly for what I had to know about the levels!

"one level lower or higher"... that's the key point and the answer I was looking for!  |
