Tennis Tipping #23a Lugano​

What is Tennis Tipping?

In the game, participants pick the winners of all main draw matches (and sometimes some qualifying draw matches) and are placed in a knock-out system. That means each participant plays a different participant and whoever predicted the winner of most matches correctly, moves on to the next round. The same applies for doubles, but you're in a team format and your scores are combined.

Note:

- In case of a tie, a tie-breaker will decide who moves on to the next round.

- In case a player (i.e. the actual ATP Player) retires in a match, this match will be counted as long as one point has been played. If players are replaced by a lucky loser after the start of Tennis Tipping, these matches will be cancelled.

How to Sign-Up:

Just post here that you would like to play. You can only play one tournament per week. Entries will be based on ranking. Everyone can commit.

Please read this post for more information
http://www.menstennisforums.com/show...14&postcount=1

How to send in picks:

Picks can be sent in as soon as the draws are ready. Remember, you pick a winner in every match! Picks should be sent by PM, so that your opponent does not know your picks. Picks should be titled: TT: Lugano ***DAY. Picks can be sent in anytime until the beginning of play each day, or in special cases until the deadline set by the manager in order to benefit the majority. If you're still in both singles & doubles, you use the same tips for both. For doubles, you still tip the ATP singles matches, not the doubles! No changes can be made after the play has started.

PRECAUTIONARY MEASURE

If the board goes down as has happened before, send your picks to jimdixon99@aol.com

Re: Tennis tipping #23a Lugano.

You may commit now.

I offer an alternative to the heady excitement of Kosice, and the intense concentration of Queens or Halle.

The thread is opening very late because nobody wanted to manage this lovely little tournament. Please join me in making it a success.

Re: Tennis tipping #23a Lugano. No virgins, no eroticism, just tennis

In :sad: I'm affraid nobody commits. What if not enough people commit ?
It's going to be a question of supply and demand, mon ami. I have searched the archives and the only precedent I can find is 2006 when the draw in Toronto was extended and everybody left a challenger that week.

I am optimistic that both Kosice and Lugano will get enough entries, so I hope you will stay here, but I can't tell you what to do.

Incidentally thanks for your offer of help - I will bear it in mind.

Re: Tennis tipping #23a Lugano. No virgins, no eroticism, just tennis

Since this is a EUR 85K challenger, I think the points should be 120 for the winner. It's in the TT rules somewhere.

Re: Tennis tipping #23a Lugano. No virgins, no eroticism, just tennis

Since this is a EUR 85K challenger, I think the points should be 120 for the winner. It's in the TT rules somewhere.
Thanks for your input. I thought long and hard about this before putting the points in the thread. The rules actually say $100k or more is a 120 points and $75k +H or less is a 90 points challenger.

At present exchange rates EUR 85k = about $104k, so it would qualify for 120 points, but the dollar is rising steadily against the Euro because of the problems in Europe, and by the time the tournament starts EUR 85k may be worth less than $100k.

I have no idea at what point the conversion kicks in, so I preferred to err on the side of caution when preparing the thread. Obviously I would like there to be 120 points for the winner, to perhaps encourage more entries.

As you have raised the point, I will ask in the managers' thread.
