That's ridiculous. Just because we suck doesn't mean we shouldn't have some sort of organized competition to compete in. Does winning a 4.0 league mean anything in the bigger picture? Of course not, but it's not the meaning of the prize in the annals of tennis history that matters, it's the meaning of the prize to the people competing for it that matters.
I agree. Someone with an all or nothing attitude about sports doesn't understand the nature of competition. I won't ever play on the pro tour but that doesn't stop me from having fun playing and competing in recreational tournaments & leagues and trying to improve my game. I would hate to see what the tennis scene would be like without the USTA or its equivalent.
