And from the last 2 years, Evo, Harriet, Cam, Emma and Katie S have all fallen away as top favourites

I didn't vote for Heather but I did give her an honourable mention so I'm happy with that result.

 Haha. Of course in saying I dont do it for the thanks, it sounds awfully like I was asking for some thanks! Haha. Oh well.

Am wondering how many people were inspired to vote for Heather after this week? #recencybias

Possibly, though actually I take it as voting for my favourite player just now, as opposed to over the last year or two or last decade...

 This is my feeling too, but there is variability in "just now" - based on the last fortnight, I would have voted for Ms Watson too, but over the last year I think that Ms Boulter was my favourite in more weeks than Ms Watson.

... but over the last three years it would likely be Mr Evans, and over the last ten - fifteen Mr Murray (A)

PS - thanks Jon!

Not just for the poll itself, but for the self-examination that it provoked!

I wonder if this had taken place now, as opposed to a month or more ago, whether the outcome would have been different? Would Katie B's San Diego win have made a difference to the votes? Would Andy's announcements around retirement in the summer, or his subsequent efforts in Miami and injury have improved his support?

How much of our voting is linked to things that are happening now and which impact who we support as our "favourite" at any one time?!
