We received two Tie-break entries for the swag prize for the WTA SP.
JazzyG predicted: Sabalenka, in two sets, with the scores of 7-6 & 6-2, and a total number of games of 21.
rktct2b predicted: Sabalenka, in two sets, with a total number of games of 21. But the prediction for the first set was 6-3.
Therefore:
JazzyG is the winner of the swag prize because the prediction for the first set was closer.

Dave G will contact you for the details of how to get it delivered.

Congrats, JazzyG :clap: :clap: :clap: :trophy:

Congrats to the other 3 people who beat the draw.

I was almost out on the second day when Bouzkova trailed 3-0 and two breaks in the third set after I lost on day 1 of the men's pool, so I feel fortunate.

Have learned enough with some supposed feel-good picks that flopped, that it helps getting a little lucky sometimes.

Kinda close, but I survived Day 3, Day 5, and the semis w/ my pick dropping first set, plus a few tiebreaks + three-setters.

Congrats again too all.

When did I lose out because my picks made it through every day or did I miss something?

Hi Khethux.
You picked Pegula both on day 8 and day 11:
Day 11: viewtopic.php?p=118151#p118151

Day 8: viewtopic.php?p=117761#p117761

Your double pick eliminated you.

Big congrats to JazzyG, rktct2b,Wolfie0890, and Keirules for winning the ladies survivor pool, but beating the draw as well. A job well done, that is tough to do!!! Thanks to JTC and ponchi for running the pool.

It's always fun and nerve wracking all at the same time, lol
