Aww, sorry Johnnylad. But do not despair, there's always Wimbledon biggrin.gif

We've managed 28 entrants, which is excellent. Good luck to everyone.


At the close of entries teams look like this:

41 = 11% AM AndyMurray.com
38 = 6% TN Tennisopolis.com
36 = 11% TA TalkAboutTennis.com (new team)
32 = 11% RF RogerFederer.com
32 = 9% IN Individuals (no team)
28 = 8% BT BritishTennis.net
26 = 11% CC CentreCourtHavoc
21 = 5% MT MensTennisForums
17 = 7% TY Tennis4you.com
14 = 5% AR AndyRoddick.com
13 = 3% JM JamieMurray.org (new team)
12 = 5% RG RichardGasquet.net
12 = 4% GR Rusedski.co.uk
5 = 2% ND Novak-Djokovic.com (new team)
----------------------------------------------
3 = 1% SG Stevegtennis.com
2 = 1% TW TennisWarehouse (new team)
1 = 0% TM Tennis.com (new team)
1 = 0% BZ BritishTennisZone
1 = 0% RN RafaelNadal.com
0 = 0% BB BBC boards
0 = 0% MK MarkKnowlesTennis
0 = 0% LT The LTA
0 = 0% VB VamosBrigade.com

that's not the 100% final table as there are a couple of issues still to sort out but it's pretty accurate. :)

Getting the results up will probably take until the end of the day today as it normally takes a good 3 hours and we're having a few problems on top of that. In the meantime, enjoy the tennis!!

Wow, is that the most number of players that we have ever had?


Lopez Jaen winning prevents me from having a perfect record so far. It was dumb to go for Dancevic who had been out for so long. cry.gif

I've gone with the form book for most matches, but i've got a couple of surprises here and there. For one, i picked Schwank to beat Moya, and thankfully he's a set and a break up so far.

there is always Wimbledon!

If I had the time I would love to organise a pick'em for Surbiton or Queens!.

But I haven't and nor am I suggesting that any of you have! laughing.gif

lol, sorry Johnnylad. You could always run it for yourself only (ie print the draw, make the picks and then see how you do). Call it practise for Wimbledon if you don't want to feel overly sad wink.gif

After some of today's results I could also do with Tipsy winning; one positive though is past evidence would suggest that Janko loves taking matches the full distance.

I need Tipsy to win also... at least until round four. I think.

Thank God at least Andy won. That gives me one point at the very least!

I think I got something like 10 matches correct. Would have been happy had Tipsy not lost that - I'm in trouble in that section. hmm.gif

Okay, the page has been updated. I'm 41st (joint with many others) so it's fine. But I'm scared because I'm one of the very few people who have Tipsy in the quarters! I need Blake to lose as fast as possible.



This time some people have gone for more unusual winners, meaning that if they're correct, they could make a killing. Other than the usual suspects, we also have Wawrinka, Blake, Gasquet and Marc Lopez (the person must be a crazy fan, or having a cool sense of humour, or most likely - he/she chose Kiefer who later withdrew).



The rankings list looks extremely vibrant with all those flags which go down to 341. Well done with the publicity, guys! worship.gif

And loving the health warning on the Competitions page. rofl.gif You should also add an educational hazard warning, by the way!


At the moment BT is 6th but things hardly matter at this stage.
