New Challenger / Future Tour !

Hello,

we're going to run a few Challenger / Future tournaments in the incoming weeks.
These tournaments will be played with Simulation controls instead of Elite controls, so they should be more newcomers friendly (and also please our less skilled fellows ;) ).

You need to be ranked 40 or worst to enter a Challenger in Singles, 25 in Doubles.
You need to be ranked 80 or worst to enter a Future in Singles, 50 in Doubles.

The current idea is to have a Future on the same weeks than the Master Series, and a Challenger on the weeks with TET500/250.
We may change that though depending the situation & the participation level.

If a queue doesn't have enough players, it'll be merged with another tournament of the same week.

EDIT: as there's currently not enough players for lower ranked doubles draws, people playing the Challenger/Future Tournaments in Singles are allowed to queue for another tournament in Doubles on the same week.
