Being world #1 was going to be extremely hard. Anna already knew some countries were more hostile to omega males than others. It was balanced a tiny bit with some countries being more hostile to alpha males. A tiny bit because aside from Esnus, all the countries that had IPTB 500 tournaments and above were fine with alphas. Half of those countries discriminated against omegas. There were events all over the world. It was possible to break the top 100 if you won consistently while traveling to omega friendly countries. Winning the Grand Slams multiple times would definitely mark you as one of the greatest of all time. Reid, Reilly, Ronan and Rhys could beat the alphas on the court. But alpha males would always get the points from other events to overtake them in the rankings. That was a very bitter pill for Anna to swallow. It would be easier for Mitchell to break the top 10 and stay on it than for any of the 4 Idut brothers. As a beta male in Breaca, he already had a coach and a manager. He could go to omega hostile territory to play. Just a couple of rounds were enough.
Mitchell taking that opportunity was up in the air. He and Ronan were currently dating each other. While Ronan would support his man, he would not be able to follow him over there. The 9 Masters were the Ufrana Open in Asmon; Crescil Open in Breaca; Ufrea Open in Shesil; Eshax Open in Astrea; Edrya Open in Yetrye; Ospen Open in Jachia; Aplil Open in Oskon; Pleala Tourney in Rosnua and Escar Touney in Xushill. All of them well prestigious and openly televised. Breaca was culturally sexist, but there were no laws holding the omegas down. This was not the case in Yetrye and Asmon. Omegas were wards of their alpha head of household. If one was not in their immediate family, it went back generations until there was one found. If not, they went to their closest beta male ancestor. At least they had voting and property rights if they were the sole heir to an estate. It was worse in Xushill and Jachia. Not only did omegas not have agency from the alpha househead, they had no rights. Assaulting an omega was a property crime against the alpha. That was just horrible to hear.
Rosnua and the other countries were egalitarian. It was illegal to discriminate based on gender there. Each of those countries had a big IPTB 500 tournament too. They were the Ashana Open; Estor Open; Aflea Open; Asnia Open; Aclil Open; Closia Open; Floetho Open; Cethen Open and Utron Opens respectively. There were 4 more of them. Those were the in Grolor Open in Aglar; Skotar Open in Pespal; Dupreyjan Open in Praivania and Kuglua Open in Vustrijan. Praivania and Vustrijan unfortunately were all of the Jachia strain of gender relations. Pepsal was thankfully more similar to Breaca. That meant there were 5 countries where trying to play would be actively dangerous. Not a single person would stand up for them if a criminal went out and attacked them. Trips to Yetrye and Asmon could still be viable. Their father was a strong alpha male and would therefore be recognized as their househead. Part of the prestige of the upper ranked tournaments was that they paid for travel and a hotel for players and a plus 1. With 4 plus 1's, their alpha cousins could join them too.
