For me to get in America with a tourist visa i must to complete the electronic visa application form. I need the picture, to pay a fee for visa, to schedule an interview and to be accepted. Then i need a passport and to go at the interview at their embassy and of course you need it other little things but is not so bad. Visa application is made 3 months ahead and this is the big problem.

If they don't stop with the immigrant paranoia in the US soon every european country - EU or not - will need visa again.

Yes, because Donald Trump is a man who has been tired of so many legal or illegal immigrants. It's not easy to get a 10-year visa in America and after that you can lose the right to live on their territory. I know a case and this man was married but he was expelled from USA. It is very difficult to win a seat in satellite tournaments and then to get your visa very quickly. Perhaps embassies also offer emergency visas.

The European Commission makes an effort and asks the United States to abolish visas for all countries from European Union. For now, Trump has not accepted this and it's not clear if he accepts or not in future. The Visa Lottery for Usa can be abolished, i think.
for me, as residents of Russia, it seems to me that it’s most likely absolutely impossible to get to this tournament .... I won’t be allowed in simply because I am from Russia ... and this is a minus one player who could change something ... therefore some then I will not attempt to participate in it .... which of course is very sad

Well the truth is I never had the luck to be able to earn something nice with little money but I am glad that others can do it and more if in fact they need that money ... since sometimes it seems that the same game is all armed for that you win or lose to how they want hahaha

You mean the Green Card Lottery? That's different than the rest of the Visa stuff though. Green Cards are permanent work permits.
