2023 PLAYER OF THE SEASON VOTE - FINAL

JonH comes home · Tennis legend

So - a tie is a strong possibility. If we get a tie at 10 pm tonight, the plan is to have a tie break play off as mentioned to determine the winner. The play off will end tomorrow at noon. The vote will be posted tonight after 10, as close to 10 as I can manage and certainly by 11 latest.

If the play off is tied at noon tomorrow, I will extend the vote further, to 4 pm. If it is still tied at 4 pm, we will call it a draw.

We may not need a play off of course as there is still 8 hours to go today. I hope we dont need one to be honest !

That's a bit of a (nice) surprise. They were third on the year-end race, but the top team Dodig and Krajicek also won a Slam, which the ITF gives extra weight to. The ITF doesn't give weight to the ATP Tour Finals, although feels like a deserved honour because they won that event. Without knowing the full calculations, it must have been tight.

There must, surely, be one or two votes left out there to come in the evening!! We cant leave this as a tie on the same score for the last 8 hours of the vote, that would be travesty!!

And we need to get this over 50 votes folks!!
