[edit] Notable?

Is Young any more notable than the 2000 other U.S. players with profiles on http://www.juniortennis.com/ajt/playerinfo.php?player_id=225? -Willmcw 04:56, 29 November 2005 (UTC)

Yes, Young is considered one of America's rising young talents, even though he has struggled as a pro so far. Look at his juniors results- they are impressive. Wangster 19:56, 9 March 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for that info, and for finding a photo. However the photo is certainly not public domain unless it has been explicitly released by the photographer. Images, and other creations are automatically copyrighted, no notice is required. For more on the details, see Wikipedia:Copyrights and Wikipedia:image tags. The bottom line is that the best way to get a picture would be for someone at a match to take his picture then release it under the GFDL or similar license. Sorry to break the bad news, but we have this problem with every article. -Will Beback 22:03, 10 March 2006 (UTC)

Crap, I'll take off the picture. Wangster 03:41, 11 March 2006 (UTC)

Young has improved as a player in 2007. He has won 1 ITF Futures title which are professional tournaments for low ranked players. He has tasted better success in doubles having won futures titles as well as 2 challenger titles.
