Re: Junior Masters in China

Fritz will play Luz in the first semifinal, Fritz should win althougt Luz is an agressive player yet erratic.

Rublev and Mmoh will decide who plays against Duck Lee.

Re: Junior Masters in China

This is a nice initiative But where will the Wild Card(s) be given to? Asian challengers? Or ATP tournaments?

Junior Masters in China

The provision of wild cards is one of the ways in which the ITF Junior Masters will assist these top juniors in making a transition from junior tennis to the professional game.
Member nations and their professional tournaments have already donated 2 ATP World Tour wild cards, 20 ATP Challenger wild cards, 25 ITF Women’s Circuit tournament wild cards at $25,000 level or above, and over 40 wild cards for ITF Men’s and Women’s Circuit events at $10,000 or $15,000 level. Players will have the opportunity to select wild cards for use in 2015 and 2016 in the order of their final finishing positions.
The 16 competitors will also be competing for a total prize fund of $160,000 in travel grants. Each player to qualify for the Masters will earn a minimum travel grant of $7,000, while the boys’ and girls’ champions will both be awarded $15,000 travel grants.
