Wimbledon Draw Challenge - WTA

[Moxie]

Now that the draw is out, you can make your picks in our group Draw Challenge at tennisdrawchallenge.com. Have a look at this video, as it will help you navigate the site:



You have until Monday, 3 July at 10am GMT to fill out your picks. That's Sunday evening in the US, and sometime like Sat. night in Australia, etc. Do play! (PS: Our group is still called "Discuss Tennis.")

I don't know whether any mods are maintaining a private pool for us at racquet bracket. But, it asked me as to whether I want to submit it to private pool for tennis frontier folks as well and I did so. If any of you, do their draws at tourneytopia, you might want to submit it for private pool for tennisfroniter folks as well.

Standings after Day One - Womens Draw

Ladder after Wednesday's action

@Backhand_DTL and @kskate2 topping the leaderboard. @Hoergren and myself guarding the back door before we make our assault on the silverware... Hoergren at least. Petra's early exit has wrecked my draw.

Ladder after Thursday's action.

@kskate2 rocking it at the top. Will she be the first to do the double (winning Mens and Womens Ladders)?

 

[kskate2]

@britbox Thanks Baron for giving me a new goal to strive for. You know how easily bored I am dealing w/ these Fedal wars.

Live by the bragging rights, die by the sword, my friend. You're just going to have to live with the shame like most of the rest of us. We could start a side-bar bet for results going forward, though.

nope. Only an admin can

Is there a way to delete posts after one hour has elapsed?

It's 3 hours now but there had to be a cap imposed as we received several emails from the Delete Key on El Dude's keyboard, who was getting bludgeoned so badly the text had worn off during previous prediction comps.
