Wild card tournament

You are a modest tennis player, in your late twenties, an all right player but not very talented. The city was sponsoring a tournament to be partner from a player from WTA at a tournament in the city. The top 31 positions were preselected for semi professional players, but one would be selected in a lottery. So you fill out the form for fun not ever thinking that you could get selected.

About month later you get phone call to find out that you have been selected. The tournament starts Friday and will last on Monday if you survive. They inform you that the semi finals will be best of three. Your first three round you play barely good enough to make you threat. But in each case they nearly make triple digits unforced errors. Your semifinal match is the first match, by some unforseen luck he had got hurt and was obviously sick. If he was playing anyone else he would have lost easily but you inched a victory in the third set tie breaker.

This was not going to happen in the final match, you had not been able to even get a single point and was losing 6-0, 5-0. And he had just served three aces on his serve. On his next serve I was barely able to get the ball over and he must have mistimed because his the net popped up and barely missed the line according to line judge. This is when he lost it. He first argued, then bumped one official giving me the second set. The director of touranment came out and he swung at him which caused head ump to call the match and I won.

The WTA representive spoke with me, and said we are going to have to get you a coach because your luck will run out. At the ceremony representive gave me a trophy and then introduced my partner it was Anna Kournikova.
