They earn points by traveling the world, tournament after tournament, fighting in places we cannot pronounce. Olympic spots go to the top-ranked players, but the real battle is fought by parents like me, selling a portion of our land just to buy the flight tickets and coaching. My own son, he trains from 4 AM, but his world ranking depends more on my bank balance than his backhand.
