Player News
This is another very, very quiet week — no events above the $10K level. And one of these is in Antalya, Turkey, which had a $10K event last week also (with almost exactly the same field).
Most of the players, even the ones who usually show up at low Challengers, seem to have decided to take the last weeks of the year off. At least, the draw at the Djibouti $10K has only 24 players in the main draw rather than the usual 32; the eight seeds all have byes. And there was no qualifying.
