A simplistic yet tricky game for the Slams and the YEC. The results of all 5 [in 2020 only 4] tournaments will be added up for the annual competition.
Anyone can join anytime, and here is how it works:
1. Main Prediction: Give your top 6 favorites for winning the tournament.
2. Runner-up Prediction: Give your top 6 favorites for losing in the final.
Awarded Game Points + Example of a prediction post:
So you can earn 600 + 60 + 11(6+5) = 671 points per tournament in your quest to win the TopFavorites Challenge 2020. 
The 'Main Prediction' is by far the most important element of this game while the 'SF Prediction' is only like a tiebreak. The SF part is formally automatic, but it being blended with the RU part might influence your game strategy a little bit.
Deadline is the start of the first Main Draw match.

(You can skip this part 2 if you like. In that case your 'Main Prediction' will automatically be used for it too, just with your first and second pick swapped.)
3. SF Prediction: And who will lose in the Semis? Your 'SF Prediction' will by default be derived from your 'Runner-up Prediction', just that your 1st will be swapped with your 3rd and your 2nd will be swapped with your 4th. (In case you skipped the Runner-up part, your Main Prediction will automatically be used also for the SF part in place of your Runner-up Prediction.)
Awarded Game Points + Example of a prediction post:
Rich (BB code):
Federer (<- worth 600 points, if he wins)
Nadal (<- worth 500 points, if he wins. ...etc)
Djokovic
Murray
Wawrinka
Dimitrov (<- worth 100 points, if he wins)
Runner-up:
Nadal (<- worth 60 points, if he finishes runner-up. ...etc)
Federer
Djokovic
Murray
Wawrinka
Tomic (<- worth 10 points, if he finishes runner-up)
And the automatically derived SF points can be: 6 / 5 / 4 / 3 / 2 / 1.
