Tennis Tipping Davis Cup 2012 - February 2012 - WG I R16/WG II R1



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 which player wins.

- 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 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 Davis Cup, 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 Davis Cup doubles, you tip the Davis Cup doubles rubbers. No changes can be made after the play has started.

Additional Rules

1. Players will be allowed to make tactical changes to the doubles and reverse singles up until the start of play for that day - the captains must pm me to inform me before the days' play starts though.

2. Non playing members of each team may send me in their tips each day as backup incase one of the other members of their team doesn't send in their tips.

3. Any matches where the lineups change in the ATP matches will not count in singles. For doubles, players will tip the country rather than the players so will have to use their judgement to determine who is likely to play after the first days' singles results.

4. Dead rubbers played on the final day will not count for TT purposes.

PRECAUTIONARY MEASURE

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

The ITF Davis Cup Nations Ranking is published following every World Group round. All nations are ranked.

The ITF Davis Cup Nations Ranking measures the success of all Nations participating in the Competition over a 'rolling' four year period with recent performance weighted more heavily.

After each round the ranking period adjusts and any results outside the adjusted four year period drop off. At the same time points from the same round for the three previous years are reduced as per the points table below. Therefore, 100 points would become 75, then 50, then 25 over the four years.

The points stated are awarded to the winning team in that round. (A nation losing in the World Group first round, for example, earns 0 points for that tie.) In addition, any Nation that defeats a higher-ranked Nation receives bonus points according to its opponent's ranking as detailed in the table below.

Wednesday 18th January 18:00 CET - Captains confirm.
Wednesday 25th January 18:00 CET - Teams confirmed.

Then, the team captains need to confirm their line ups to me by 8th February, i.e. who is playing singles and doubles. This only applies to teams with 3 or 4 players as teams with only 2 will automatically play singles and doubles.

Re: Tennis Tipping Davis Cup 2012 - Feb/2012 - WG I R16/WG II R1

France has a bye to the WG Playoffs. French players have already been told to commit to challengers if they want to play TT in week 6.

Nations marked with (c) have the choice of ground and can send me the location, the stadium capacity, the surface and the ball type of their ties (just for fun, no effect on the TT matches).

Line-ups (who plays singles, doubles & reverse singles) must be sent until February 8th WED 6 PM CET.

Deadlines will be very early because of the Japan vs Croatia tie. They're scheduled to start at 1 PM local time on Friday, which is 5 AM CET/4 AM GMT/11 PM (Thursday) EST.
