Talk About Tennis 2.0

Interesting in what sense?

Potentially much stronger than their ranking indicates and/or possible future top 20.

As an extreme example Jannik Sinner was a qualifier at 2019 USO.

Ok. I really do not know anything about them.

There are a lot of names on this list that are new to me, especially on the ATP side.

I'm just going by their junior accomplishments. Budkov Kjaer is Wimbledon champion and Bartunkova FO finalist.

Is Sloane the lowest ranked player ever to qualify? I kinda thought she retired....

After balking a bit, AI did give me a few answers, and the lowest player with a ranking it found was Jared Palmer - #923 at the US Open.

However, Barba Schwartz apparently had no ranking when she qualified for Wimby and USO in 2001?

Anyways, funny for AmitS that my wild card came from outside the top 1000 (I knew she was low but not that low.)
