TOP FIVE TUMBLING US OPEN 2011

Just came across this email from Sunday when checking the junk mail folder to see if any BOTB entries had ended up in there by mistake:

Hi Steven, this is Ace! can you please enter the information below into https://andymurray.forumotion.com/ on my behalf please.

Top Five Tumbling
1. Ferrer
2. Nadal
3. Federer
4. Nole
5. Andy

Joker Fish

Wildcard JC Ferrero

Well done to sally and Hfwardhouse for finding a wild card ranked over 110 who can score 15 points if they win a match and Bubka has done just that for Hfwardhouse. I really struggled and eventually gave up and settled for the next bracket down - at least Ilhan has done the business for me in round 1 Also winning are Young and Melzer but Prodon and Rochus have bitten the dust and Nalbandian is a set down

Are we still having Top 8 and CoC?

That reminds me I need to update the top 8 after the two US masters but it will probably be the weekend before I get on to that.

Sally picked Vasek - wish I had now.

erm, well he hasn't won yet.

I did have Bubka to win his R1 match in the pick'em!

Hm, my wildcard pick was a tad ambitious I think!

Ambition is always the way to go on this even if it does not work - better to be winning or close to it if the ambition pays off or losing if it does not than just to be middle of the road.

I had one or two or so over 100 who I picked in mypickem but as they wre 50 50s I decided not to plump for one of them as my wildcard, as they were highly unlikely to get past the second round anyway.

I can't see the column next to the wild card column so don't see the points scored. Bummer. I do like the running headline along the top. Good stuff!

any better

Thanks, that looks quite blurred though.

ye done another^^^

Looks much better

Great win for Canuck Vasek Pospisil 6-1 6-2 6-1. Sally was right to pick him as her WC.

Phew, it was a bit of a long shot though.......

Well done Sally! I really should have picked him considering he's Canadian.

Looks great now, Jay!

nope that just incompetence on my part
ta do it now

Me again. The 3 players with Berdych/Nalbandian should be on 45.

Another Ferrero win will have Ace regretting his Fishy pick!

WINS ADDED FOR TSONGA & FERRERO

BTW TY ALLY

While I like being at the top its a little mean of you on Sally not to have given her the Tsonga points. Again I'm too honest.
