They had a mandatory commitment of tournaments to play but if they broke a racket at the right time, they would go above the fines threshold and get four weeks where they weren't allowed to play."

If you get that element of your game in order, the payoff is huge. He's got the game to be a consistent top-five player, to take out Grand Slams, and do it regularly.
