So recently, I ran a favourite British player vote, which Jake Fearnley won.
In Covid times, I ran lots of polls and one of them was to find the favourite International player - for the life of me I cant find who won it! But a lot has changed since then with the Big 3 and Serena all retiring.
So, I thought I would give it another go and see what the current board members think our favourite overall international player is!
128 players - 64 men and 64 women (NO BRITS!). Top 56 singles players in each of the men and women, top 8 doubles players in each.
16 groups of 8 - the top 2 will get through from each group. If there is a tie, there will be a vote off.
From the second round of 32, 4 groups of 8 will be formed and 8 will proceed to a final.
This first vote will run 2 days as there are a lot of groups and will close at 5PM on Wednesday. That will allow the ties to have play off votes that evening.
Semis will run Thursday morning to Friday night; final will run Sat morning to Sunday night
Each group as 4 men and 4 women, Organised based on rankings. I simply went through the list and allocated, so no favouritism, but the top players are kept apart. Each group has 7 singles players and 1 of the doubles players
Enjoy and if you vote, say who you vote for to allow the voting to keep alive and active!
This is about your favourite and not who is best - but let us know who is your favourite international player!
Something to take note of - the groups all finish at separate times, 2 days after I set them off; group A is around 1652 and group p something like 1720, the others are in between. And its an automatic close; so dont get caught out folks by assuming they are all the same time!

Vekic for me. I really like Gauff but I like to support Vekic - she has persevered and I always feel her as a bit of an honorary Brit. As a junior she trained here.

Well Coco and Vekic lead the way, seems you are in the majority, Julia!
