The question is interesting for Iran/Estonia

Some news :

- a u15 girl aiming high : https://footballi.net/news/r/845587/...A7%D8%B3%D8%AA

- a u18 girl could play the next Australian open junior : https://footballi.net/news/r/845272/...B4%D9%88%D8%AF

I am surprised the girls are performing much better than boys despite all the restrictions..

Tennis professional has 3 division :

- ATP : 1st division for the top100
- Challenger : 2nd division for top100 to top 350 (approx.)
- Futures : 3rd division for beyond top350 (approx.). For futures players, it's hard to live from tennis.

Currently a futures tournaments is organized in Kish. We have one Iranian reaching the QF in single, and an Iranian duo reaching the SF in double.
The rest are foreigners (russian, Hungarian, italian..).

Kish will organize an other futures tournament next week
