In the past predictions of mine (on another forum) have been known to sink whole legions of players, so please may the Fates look away now!

Maybe we can say the following are not predictions, just the optimistic ramblings of a Victim Of Hope Over Reality :)

1. Jo 16
2. Heather 32
3. Naomi 75
4. Laura 99
5. Katie S 140
6. Freya 150
7. Tara 180
8. Katie B 230
9. Katy 240
10. Lisa 250

With Em dubs 75

Haha; didn't expect Naomi to hit 75 quite so soon; I'll forgive you if you go yet higher Naomi smile

First update of the season and SMC1809 takes an early lead of 4 points with Kundalini second.

Special mention to LordBrownOf who is the closest to correctly predicting JoKo's ranking - 2 out at 19.

Next update after Paris.

No chance for me - completely under predicted Joko and over predicted Robbo

SMC1809 · All-time great

There's still hope - I've got Laura at 109!

tony_orient · ATP qualifying

My prediction for Laura clearly wasn't based on picking up any early season points, but was instead based on a dramatic run to the semi-finals of either Wimbledon or the US Open, so still very much on track!

indiana · Tennis legend

At least GB #4 ( currently outside the world top 300, as it has been for a while ) for Laura looks very doable ( though winning would help, yes ) so there are possible GB ranking points to be had for all those folk who have her in the top few in GB.

Heartened to see that I'm still the most hopelessly optimistic overall...hoping to be closer than LordBrownof next time re Jo smile

Updated female ranking table with kindalini moving up from 2nd place to first but still all to play for.

I am sure that JoKo takes a keen interest in these predictions and she now "only" needs to rise 3 more places to beat the most optimistic predictions of 16 by vohor and Julia Carrot

Good grief; I'm off the bottom [shock icon]
Thanks, myfyr, old friend! :)

Post Wimbledon update with CD moving up 2 places to take the lead. Top of the table alot tighter than for the male predictions.

Josh manages to avoid being 1st for the men and last for the ladies by one place.
