UPDATED 2024 WSP Women's Picks & Results Thread

Wow!

[JTContinental]

And now we do! I’ve opened a day 8 thread so we can all live vicariously through the champ

[tennisbrp]

Is someone going to wake me up? Donna Vekic for the win??????? How many times has she left courts sobbing in the third set why I wonder what on Earth I picked her for..... funny truth is I wrote Raducanu and then my spouse (blomgren on here) lost to Lulu when she beat Zhu so once I thought there would not be a two timer slayer in this household I switched it immediately.

Congratulations to Tennisbrp for surviving the madness and winning SP.

[ponchi101]

Amazing, Tennisbrp!

Congratulations Tennisbrp!!! Is this the earliest TAT has ever crowned a SP champ?

I think there has been at least one first Friday finish...

I should have picked Paolini. I had it in my head to take her but then looked at the odds and saw Keys was a moderate favorite and decided to switch to Badosa who was a slight favorite. Should have gone with my gut although in truth either match was a toss-up.

The huge problem is- sometimes your gut saves you, and sometimes it doesn't. Sometimes you shouldn't stick with your first choice, sometimes you should. I have had picks that saved match points, and picks that had match points and lost.

It. Is. All. Insanity.

Both matches were crapshoots. The women's game in unpredictable, especially on grass and with Sabalenka out. Fun to watch, murder to SP.

Congrats tennisbrp and thanks JTContinental for managing!

These SPs are a highlight for me even though I have a pretty scratchy track record so appreciate all the volunteer effort that goes into making them fun.

I waffled between Raducanu and Vekic, but ultimately went with Raducanu with very little confidence. Always fun to play and haven't made it to day 7 in a long time. Thanks to the mods!

Look at the bottom draw: Qualifier, unseeded, #7, #19. Those are the QF's.
Picking matches to reach that line up is simply impossible. This SP was/is insane.
Let's see what the top side produces.

Yeah Vekic has burned me multiple times and is pretty much someone I could never make myself pick again.

this was my position exactly! Wanted to pick Vekic but just couldn't make myself do it, but thought Raducanu had a lot of risk also. Oh well, it's been fun, and agree, thanks much to the moderators!
