Pro badge eligibility

Pro is a badge awarded by Masters News based on a player’s results in ITF Masters tournaments.

In recognition of the international nature of ITF Masters, all of the following conditions must be met.

1. The player has won a tournament with at least 15 participants, excluding byes. The size of the draw itself does not matter.
2. At least one player whose nationality differs from the host country has actually played at the tournament venue.
3. Foreign-national players who only entered and did not attend the venue do not count toward this requirement.

The participant count and the foreign player’s participation must relate to the same tournament won by the player. An entry list, bye or walkover alone is not evidence of actual play.
