2022 US OPEN YCWJ || Scoreboard and Lounge

[Togtdyalttai]

Welcome to the true losers' lounge, where if losses happen involving players you picked, you'll be on cloud nine. A pick tracker is now up and will be updated daily, and scoreboards will be updated after the finish of each round.

Please check your picks and let me know if I've taken anything down incorrectly.

Note: I'm projecting Carballes Baena as the winner over Munar. I'm not sure why they stopped playing.

No contestant was able to score a perfect 20 for the first round. Deelighted2 was almost there, finishing with 19, with sokol and Vexchaps on their heels. Scores as a whole were fairly low, with 6 contestants at 10 points or lower.

Rain is the reason why 3 matches were carried over.

My ATP number 1 saved multiple match points to keep me from 20.

[ponchi101]

And I did so well at Wimbledon...

[Togtdyalttai]

Jeff in TX had the best second round, with 13 points, but he's still one point behind the leaders deelighted2 and sokol, who have 30. Jeff is also the only contestant with at least 6 picks left, while dave g is the only other one with at least 5. At the other end of the scoreboard, all contestants have entered double digits, and all still have at least one pick remaining. We'll see if they can keep that up for another round...

A lot of points worth picks won. There is a fairly large drop off of points won from Round 1 to Round 2. I had thought that I was out of it for only having 12 points from Round 1, but now it looks like I have a chance if I picks continue to hold for another 2 rounds.

In round 1, Zhizhen Zhang lost to Tim van Rijthoven, but the pick tracker has him winning. This affects my score--I should have 15 points for round 1, rather than 13, and 7 for round 2, rather than 5 (Van Rijthoven lost to Ruud in the 2nd round.) Not enough to help my pretty mediocre showing, but thought I'd point it out.

[Togtdyalttai]

I apologize for missing a round. The pick tracker and scoreboard are now updated.

Vexchaps, who has not lost a pick in two rounds, is now in the lead with 47. Jeff from TX is still near the lead in second, but has faded fast. Deelighted2 and sokol are tied for third one point behind. Vexchaps is the only contestant with ore than two picks left, and scored four points higher than any other contestant in the round.

IronMike finished last for the contest with a not-too-shabby 12. Many contestants are now out of picks, including him.

Going into the semifinals, the picture for the contest is quite clear: only three contestants have a pick remaining, deelighted2, motobass, and patrick. Unfortunately for deelighted2, their pick is shared with motobass, and motobass is ahead by one point. Therefore motobass is the favorite to win at this juncture. But patrick can still take the medal if Iga Swiatek loses in the women's final.

SO, motobass is going for the Wimby/USO double! That's impressive

But patrick can still take the medal if Iga Swiatek loses in the women's final.

I'm sure this was how he played it out in his head... but this is also his THRNY win scenario

Also threatening to snag the USO SKAN contest ...

[Togtdyalttai]

Going into the finals, patrick and motobass are still fighting it out. A win by Iga Swiatek in the women's final will give the medal to motobass, while one by Ons Jabeur will make patrick the winner.

One possible wooden spoon winner for each of the men and women are represented in our contestants' picks. Motobass holds Federico Delbonis, who will be the ultimate loser if Casper Ruud wins the men's final, while patrick has Lesia Tsurenko, who will take the spoon if Ons Jabeur wins the women's championship. The other possible spoon winners are Simona Halep (!) for the women and Ben Shelton for the men.
