yes .. I couldn't find the player and assumed he used a nickname. I meant to ask him but forgot.
Nicknames are ok as long as we can identify the player.
I'll send the manager a pm to clarify.
Thanks
Wikipedia has a page for tennis nicknames. Muffin isn't one of them

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_n ... n_tennis#M

The team name is "It's muffin time", and one of the cheerleaders is Greet Minnen. That would suggest her partner Van Uytvanck, but we are searching for a male player. But this poster and the team has Belgium written all over them, so I think the likely answer is Goffin. I see no other unranked ATP player in the draw that would correspond to "Muffin".

It's good of you, Ace, to reach out to Foxxer, but in general we shouldn't have to chase people down to this extent. The entry rules are very clear. If Foxxer doesn't clarify, we don't make up the complement on their behalf, so they would be stuck with a 5-person team.
go firmly to the window
and listen with deep emotion,
but not with the whining, the pleas of the coward;
listen-your final pleasure-to the voices,
to the exquisite music of that strange procession
