After 2009 "Who's The Daddy" I'd like to run a prediction league again if you guys are okay with that? Altering the last format, I have mixed up some of our leading doubles and women with a few of the higher placed men. Their positions should not fluctuate as widely as last years. (NB: For...

L32: (SE) James Ward WR 217 v Qualifier (3) Adrian Mannarino (FRA) WR 97 and (7) Blaz Kavcic (SLO) WR 109 are the seeds in Wardy's quarter. Interesting that he took an SE here when he had scraped into Salzburg, though perhaps he didn't know about that when the SE was being sorted out.
