well done Nehmeth.. I just dont want your final prediction to come true.. mine looks better

"Winner: Federer
Finalist: Nole
Semis: Murray, Raonic"

p.s. I did get 3/4 on semi-finalists ;)

Well done, both. But no, no bonus points. However, "bragging" points, for sure. :clap

If Nole and Rodge make it to the finals, and Nole loses to the old Goat?? I'm back on the Potito Starace fan wagon. :nono

My challenge took a hit today, with Nole beating Grigor and Roger in the final, instead of young Ralph... :nono

Never picked all four semifinalists along with the winner and runner up correctly. Probably will never happen again either. :nono

Thanks everyone... not sure what made me pick Dimi and the Milos for the semis.

ftan, I didn't know what I was going to do if Novak lost. My only other option was baseball and my team (Phillies) are playing worse than Davydenko these days. :(
