Favourite British Tennis Player - 2024 - FINAL

I have kind of wondered if favourite British player would be best voted for biannualy at most rather than every year, maybe in some ways making it a bigger event.

However, new favorites are always evolving, and overall choices do change year on year, so if Jon is very happy to organise this each year then I guess let's go for it ...

 V happy to go for it, it fills a lull in the winter season a little! Not sure I will do it EVERY year though, and think it is interesting to see how our tastes change as new players come and old ones go!

 So to confirm, I will do this,  end of next week. 

there will be three rounds, 64 players in 8 groups of 8, followed by a semis round and then a final. I will aim at each round lasting approx 36 hours like the PoM votes will be this year; so starting Tuesday morning, 11th Feb and running through to Sunday 16th evening. Always a bit of fun, particularly in round one with 8 parallel groups to keep up with !

Based on 3rd Feb rankings lists, the 64 players are now drawn into 8 groups of 8 with 4 men and women in each one and 6 players taken from singles rankings (3 men and 3 women) and 2 from doubles (1 man, 1 woman) in each group.

There are some groups where people will hate the choice they need to make! Some where folks are fairly ambivalent - but that is the way it has crumbled!

Im ready to go but Ill leave it until next Tuesday as planned! Cant have too much of a good thing!

Past results in this

2022 1. Andy 2. Dan 3. Harriet
2023 1. Andy 2. Emma 3. Cam and Katie Swan
2024 1. Heather 2. Andy 3. Jack

 Andy has featured in the top 3 each year but he isnt in it this year, obviously. 
Be interested to see where this lands!
