He does have the option of skipping them, and if he doesn't play all the masters he doesn't risk the early exit. But at his ranking, the only other thing he can do is play a practice tournament against players he's going to beat easily and therefore get lousy experience from. Since there aren't any 250s/500s in Masters weeks there aren't any other options. XP isn't that much worse even if he loses in the first round given the lack of a quality practice option, and if you don't play you don't give yourself the chance to cause an upset and benefit.

You're right that he's different from my other players for sure, I'm just saying there is no useful alternative.
