I got an email from ATP asking me to stop fantasizing.

Does any one know why this is the case? It does not cost much to
run it. Why are they depriving the fans?

Yeah, I got the same email. It's a shame, because they were so much fun. I can only imagine there are legal reasons as to why they aren't doing it again.

What (presumably) fantasy tennis are we talking about? I don't understand.

Sorry, that wasn't clear. It's the ATP draw challenges.

We are talking about the bracket selection contest for the ATP Masters Tournaments
which starts with IW in a couple of days. They cancelled the contest.

My tennis phantasy is that Eph 3 wins the Phrench Open, Dr. Youzhny wins Wimbledon, and K. Anderson wins the US Open. As phar-phetched as that may be, I haven't received an e-mail phrom the ATP telling me to stop phantasizing. Iph I were you guys, I'd tell 'em to eph oph and mind their own binness! (Smiley phace)

That makes me very sad. We've always had fun with that. I don't understand. That's not fantasy tennis, it's merely making a pool on the draw.

I don't see the logic in this. What's the big deal about doing fantasy predictions? Did they offer any explanation?

Yes, it is draw challenge. But, ATP was calling it using the name "Fantasy Tennis" for
whatever reason.

No explanation. Just a brief email stating they're not doing it.
