Today's breakdown:
Sabalenka 9
Pegula 8
Swiatek 1

The Swiatek pick has been eliminated. We will see how many remain.

If I count right:

If Pegula wins - we have four people who will be able to pick Sabalenka in the final. All nine of us who picked Sabalenka today are out of picks now, and 4 people used Pegula as their last pick.

If Muchova wins - All nine of us who picked Sabalenka will tie

So looks like either 4 (if everyone actually makes their pick of course) or 9 winners - tiebreakers for prizes will be needed for sure!

Thanks for doing the math for me.
Everybody that wins gets a trophy. Read Dave's post for the tiebreak for the swag prize.

Not since Togtdyalttai in the 2022 U.S. Open has anyone beaten the draw in a women's survivor pool.

Four of us will end that drought if Sabalenka beats Pegula on Saturday.

Pegula has been remarkably consistent this summer. She beat Shnaider 6-4, 6-3 in Canada and 6-4, 6-2 here. She beat Muchova 5-7, 6-4, 6-2 in Cincinnati and 1-6, 6-4, 6-2 here. But she lost to Sabalenka 6-3, 7-5 in Cincinnati, so she will need to up her game even more to have a shot.

I think it's the first time I've finished this game by running out of picks (ca 60 tournaments).

As PT pointed out, with Pegula's win, only 4 players have one pick left. All have Sabalenka available for the final.
Although your pick is obvious, YOU STILL HAVE TO POST IT! I will start that topic in a short while, so you can post your pick as soon as you wish.
All four get TAT trophies, but we also have a swag prize from Jon Wertheim. Be sure to read THESE INSTRUCTIONS and then send your tie-breaking predictions to BOTH dave g and myself via Private Message. These predictions must be in, together with your pick, before the start of the final.

The final standings for the UPDATED list are:

Congrats to the 4 winners. Im happy to have made it through the draw at least, eliminated by the dreaded No Pick in the final.
But made it through to the final in both the men's and women's draws so I will take that as my consolation prize overall lol
What a fun slam to end the year

Never thought I would run the table — ever. O_o

Can anyone enlighten me on a ballpark number of people who usually do for any given Grand Slam? (I'm usually long eliminated by now). And maybe it varies more for men's/women's.

But congrats to everyone else, as well. Fun ride + tournament.

See y'all down under.

You can see how hard it is to beat the draw in this post:
viewtopic.php?t=574#p28238
Those are the numbers for THIS forum. For TAT 1, the numbers were similar but we don't have them anymore.

It happens very rarely. Be very proud.
