do u know how many tournaments marta is allowed to play? she's 16 and will turn 17 next year in january.
thanx.
btw: why is there a limit for juniors? i think without it would be better. i think a limit until 15 is ok, but 16...

Marta is 16 ....... she has 10 events from her 16-17 b-day
and from her 17th b-day in January she can play 13 events (she can play 4 slams as well IF she can make it into either qualies or Maindraw)
Why ??? it was brought in cos of what happened to Jen
full rules are on the WTA site or on the stats section of this board (AER rules)

Marta has already played 10 tournaments this season, but she will play 2 more. So I guess 12 events is the limit for 16 years old players.

they are allowed to play 2 more as long as one is a $10K and and another $25K within their regional association (Europe for Marta)
