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.
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: Como Monday/Tuesday etc. 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
chowdahead25 and Shi Feng have places in USO main singles draw, so are out of here. Well done!
lucian_iasi, karo_em9 and andrijagajic are currently in main doubles draw, but doubles are still open for another day, so they may yet lose their place.
Don't forget you can still commit here as LEs, while trying to qualify for USO. I will keep an eye on results.

The last Como Entry list update was 22/8 at 11.50 p.m. (BST) and you signed up at 7.42 a.m. on 23/8. Much as I would like to update after every single entry, I do have other things to do.
I am managing Astana this week, Como next week and St. Remy the week after, and still trying to get my picks in on time as a player.
Be patient - you will be included in the next update.
Re: Tennis Tipping #35a - Como. - Entry lists updated again
At the moment there are 32/33 singles entries so qualies are likely. PLEASE form more doubles teams!
The situation in New York is such that players gaining a place in the Main Draw there will not be known until Saturday, but I will need to make the QD in Como on Friday.
So if you are in the QD here and still in USO QD you will send picks to both. If you win a place in USO MD you will be taken out of Como and your place will be taken by a Lucky Loser.
(Looking further ahead to Monday, if you lose in USO Final QR you must choose whether you want to try for a Lucky Loser spot there or play Como.)
Edit: Following advice from TT Board, you can try for a LL spot, and only withdraw from Como if you are successful
