Tennis Tipping – The Australian Open


What is Tennis Tipping?

In the game, participants pick the winners of all main 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. :D

Please read this post for more information

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: Australian Open, day #]. Picks can be sent in anytime until the beginning of play each day. 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.

The singles manager is AdeyC and the doubles manager is ESimp

PRECAUTIONARY MEASURE

If the board goes down as has happened before, send your picks to adriancollins@hotmail.com and e_simp@hotmail.com

Differences

Doubles Draw

Final

04:04 | nickelS/andyroddlick (RUS/CHN) vs. justafanYYC/Goldmund (CAN/GER) (SR 1:0) - No Pick vs. MURRAY

NOTE – andyroddlick has on seven occasions sent to the Singles manager only, he has been given five warnings (below) that he should send to ESimp also. As of last night when Eric forwarded me the sheet to post diffs Eric had not received them, so Eric’s stated (with my agreement and backing) that his picks will not be accepted.

This will make no difference to the outcome as he picked DJOKOVIC 46 64 64 63

Congrats, nickelS (RUS)/andyroddlick (CHN)! :worship: First Grand Slam for Russia in TT!:bigclap:
I guess it's the first slam with the winner not sending picks in the finals :cool:

Congratulations to you guys too, hope we'll meet again in the next final to turn that result upside down :wavey:
