... only six of us have got more points in June than in April!

 Yes but need to take into account Naitktha Bains into GB top 10 so everyone now has an effective max score of 90 rather than 100

You can still score a full 50 points for very close WR predictions. That part is unaffected. So can theoretically get to 95.

It would probably need the full top 10 to drop out and be replaced by another set of 10 for me to stand any chance now

Anyone seen anything of Sim ? Probably time for an intermediate table, before the raning system changes yet again !

Yes, usually it's every quarter. Otherwise poor Sim might get a bit OD-ed....

And it would probably make more sense to do it after the new changes have settled in, given those will be the new (i.e. old) format of rankings for the year-end: not much point really doing one with the weird system that's about to be abolished.

Apologies I was going to update after Wimbledon so this is a bit late.....

Here are the latest standings with points as of this week with Babfive having knocked Status Quo of the lead and has  a seven point lead over Ace Ventura and brendan in joint second.

Still all to play for

There's plenty of time for changes. I think I will just try to enjoy my lead while it lasts.

Edited with the hidden rows now in and also the stats corrected for the final 3 entries!

Few more stats from the entries.

You are an optimistic lot predicting rises in ranking for everyone apart from Hev who is only predicted to slip 2 places.

The stats for players with only a few picks can be misleading as the people who didn't pick them probably has them at a lower ranking

Amanda Carreras has a dummy ranking of 999

The highest ranked player not to be picked by anyone is Alicia Barnett at GB 13

It's obviously just a bit of fun, with some purposely going in more optimistically, or tactically, in some cases, but it's not just Gabi who is having a much poorer year then many expected (everyone picked her in their top 10, and she was referred to earlier as being included in the those that pick themselves category), but there's a number of players currently 100+ places of their average, not highest, rank, which isn't great. Katie Bs couldn't be helped as she's not picked up one point for about 6 months through injury, but it's collectively been a pretty poor year for most of that top 8, unfortunately our higher end players, pretty much Konta aside.
