Murphy Cassone

The level is so deep, and we've seen it few times.

Even last week, was it Charlottesville or gonna be next week Challenger in Charlottesville? I remember last year I worked with, uh, Murphy Cassone, and he played against Rafa Jodar in Charlottesville, and he lost 7-6, 7-5, something like that, and Rafa was 300 in the world.

Right now Rafa is top 20 playing Laver Cup.

That shows that it's not that far, but they need to take extra steps to get in, and it's not as easy as everybody thinks because if you are a Challenger-level player last year, 2025, and you're getting to top 15 year after, there is really something about you which makes you great compared to all of those guys who are fit.

That's just the rule, you know? Like, you are not arguing with it.

You know that top 100 guys not gonna miss a lot of backhands.

W- w- what stops somebody like Murphy Cassone as being...

Was he a top t- college tennis player.

So yeah, obviously that just, that just compiled like, I mean, a little while of yeah, yeah, daggers, and then that was just like a stab in the heart.

I then rolled up to, uh, Granby, and [laughs] I went up 5-1 in the first against Cassone.

Played great, like real good.

I was pumped with how I started.
