JazzyG gets his/her 2nd spoon, in a tight contest. Scores are still pending, but no one can overtake that lead.
CONGRATS, JazzyG. Well played.

Thanks for running this, ponch.

The funny thing is for the first time since I started entering the suicide pools somewhere around 2006 on the TAT1 board (have not missed a single slam in that run), I forgot to make picks for the men and women on the second day. It had never happened before, and I spent a lot more time following YCWJ in the early stages as a result, including watching on ESPN+ as one of my picks, Yafan Wang, overcame a 6-0, 3-0 deficit to beat Cirstea. I figured I would not last long at that point. The key match was Golubic beating Siniakova 6-4 in the third set of a close second round. If that match had gone the other way, I would have finished with 30 points. Now I can finish with 74 if Sabalenka wins the final.

Congrats JazzyG! Well done. Looks like you are in the running to have picked the Wooden Spoon for the women, no?

Thanks, Ponchi, for running the contest, and all you do for TAT.
It seems like time is going backwards towards 1984 . . . :freaking:
