Player Profile: Nauman Rashid

Known for his unerring consistency and friendship with a certain Dr. Pawar, Nauman or "No Man/ Newman" has come a long way since the halcyon days of the last tournament. Hailing from Atlanta, Georgia, a self confessed fan of the Atlanta Braves, Nauman is a leading proponent of "play it steady and play it slow". On the court, he played 3 games last time out and managed to lose all 3 in straight sets. He did earn every opponents respect though with close sets, none of them being blowouts. Seeded 7th, he is set to face either Ada or Anmar, labeling them as "Paperweights" in one controversial interview. This time around also, he has set himself the aim of being in the top 4, a goal everybody knows he is capable of. If only Alfred would disappear. Rates Nabeel I-Mam highly.100-1 to win the tournament.
