Keys was an interesting pickup, no one else traded in an A woman.

I think I'm the only one with Andreeva, so maybe the two can meet in the final for us and spring one of us back into top contention (You're obviosuly not that far out though!)

Navarro looming large for Dave this week too!

[texasniteowl]

yeah, I saw everyone trading Shelton in and figured I'd do something different. I could have gone for Shelton too but I also wanted to save most of my trades for AO. After seeing Keys play against Valentova I'm not sure what I think about my trade though!

[ptmcmahon]

Too bad you hadn't added Mboko for this week Ashkor!

I'm fully expecting nothing from bottom of my roster after looking at AO draw. 3/4 C and D players drew a seed.

Sloane drew Pliskova which is interesting... but probably not too bad.

[ptmcmahon]

The next two days will probably decide the medalists. Rybakina-Swiatek and Pegula-Anisimova has people on both sides of the matches. Tomorrow's upcoming Zverev-Alcaraz will be big for me as the only one (near top at least) with Zverev instead of Alcaraz.

[ashkor87]

No trades left so relaxing...this is a good place I am sure

[ashkor87]

Oh good, no one has Shelton, Ill add him and then check before deadline to make sure a bunch didn't take him too... oops

I do

[ptmcmahon]

Yes it was a joke. I did my trade first and grabbed Shelton and then meant to check before deadline and see if a lot of other people had too

[ptmcmahon]

6 of (at least) top 9 had both women finalists... bad news for Dave (Swiatek), texasniteowl (Anisimova), and me(Pegula).

Everyone in top 9 except me has Alacaraz and Sinner, I have Sinner and Zverev.

I've only been scoring my own picks so not sure if I am ok if Zverev makes final (if Rybakina doesn't win womens) or if I need a Zverev title.

[ashkor87]

Too bad you hadn't added Mboko for this week Ashkor!

yes, had no trades left..!

[ptmcmahon]

Well I can take some consolation in that Zverev was close I guess.

[ptmcmahon]

I was right to not go Alcaraz and Sinner… I just guessed the wrong one not to pick!

[Oploskoffie]

After the Musetti match, this was not the outcome I was expecting. At all. I mean... We were all pretty well agreed on Novak not being a finalist, given the two people who had him on their team traded him out. Wow, what a day.

@ptmcmahon: shame about the Zverev result!

[ponchi101]

No one had Novak for his Aussie team. The sole player that had him was Wolfie, and he traded him out. For Sinner.
These games are cruel.

Ashkor had Nole in his initial team but traded him out before week 2

Considered adding him myself, then questioned his added value, felt validated when he pulled out of Adelaide, thought Sinner would wipe the court with him today and yet here we are.

Looking forward to the final scores - I think Haven't kept track of anything myself during the AO so I have no clue who is where in the AMItS rankings.

[ptmcmahon]

I have a pretty general idea, but not going to disclose in case I have someone wrong
