Most people had Djokovic going deep so it's not disastrous.

I somehow picked Fat Dave to lose in the third round so I'm quite happy about the way things are going now. Beer was involved in the making of my picks.

Need a big top half after 3/4 QFs from the bottom decided yesterday to lose, and the 4th is supposed to lose in the quarter's.

For an AMS pick 'em, definitely - we might have had a bigger drop at the AO where we had 90 more entrants than this.

steven · Tennis legend

If you thought yesterday was bad, three more seeds have gone out in the first three matches today, picked by 1% of us, 3% of us and 1% of us.

22 entrants have 1/3, the other 156 entrants have 0. ROFLMAO

(Well done john....keep it up!)

Wouldn't be too envious Drew, I have Andy beating Nole in the final and I think I also had Hewitt and Nalby making the quarters. It won't last long lol

Sorry I couldn't enter this time, have hardly been online for the past week. Will definately future ones.

And thus endeth my challenge. Both finalists gone

steven · Tennis legend

57% of the entrants have already lost their winner and we're not even through R2. Plenty have lost both finalists too. Last year, just one entrant got one finalist, so who knows how this might turn out.

It was terrible to watch Andy choke away a won 3rd set though.

There continue to be strange going-on in the Miami pick 'em - after winning R1, Bethan has since droppedout of the top 70 and has just one quarter-finalist and no semi-finalists left, with Drew in the same predicament - in each case, Fed is their only QF pick left and they had him going out to Tsonga there.

Conversely, another BT.netter TheHoose is not even in the top 150, but is the best-placed of all 178 entrants going forward with 6 QF picks, 3 SF picks, both Final picks and his winner pick left! LOL
