Maybe move it to the predictions section a couple of weeks after the event finishes? So, for reference, people can find it easily? But leave it here during the US Open if more people see it and access it here? MAKES SENSE!!
OK - moving on - onto serious business - no Andy so that's a lot of wins to take off from other years. And the doubles all bombed at Wimbly. And no wildcard dubs to give an unexpected run. I WOULD LIKE TO CALL DAN AND CAM A WILDCARD IN ALL BUT NAME!
Comments about the prediction section noted. And I will see to it that whoever moved the Wimbledon polls there will not be moving this one, at least until after the event.
It's official 'Johnny Come Home' time ! A poll, do love a poll......
AND with mixed doubles
Will give the matter some thought with coffee ....
Eventually bowed to the pressure!!
Anyway, here are some back history stats:
Counting all 5 forms of the game in the main draw: recent non Wimbledon performances. (counting doubles as a single win, ie Murray and Skupski equals 1, Salisbury and Ram also equals 1)
US Open 2015 - 21 wins (a good year, and above my 19 plus this time!)
US Open 2016 - 23 wins (another good year and above my 19 plus this time!)
US Open 2017 - 12 wins, a big fall from the previous years.
US Open 2018 - 13 wins
Australian Open 2019 - 18 wins
French Open 2019 - 13 wins
So it seems our norm is around 12-13 but pushing to highs just above the 19 plus. But we also seem to be entering this years US Open with less form than recently across the piece...
Average over last 4 US Open events is 17.25 wins
Average over last 3 non Wimbledon slams is 14.67 wins.

For those who may be wondering, at Wimbledon this year, we managed 25 wins in total across the 5 events...

So....I'm going for 8

range is all over the place currently, no pattern of voting emerging so far at all. Anywhere from zero to 17 and many in between!
2 wins really should or could have been 3, shame Cam couldnt get it over the line. 8.6% percent of our voters said 0 or 1 win total so pleased to say they are proven to be wrong.
Just Kyle today, would see him as favourite to make it 3 wins...

I went for 12 hoping the doubles would give us a decent score
