SIMPLE OUTPUT (Author and post)

by ponchi101 Picks, results and the inevitable jokes about losers and winners will be posted here.
by ponchi101 We have 24 contestants for this event, which is a solid number.
As always, all of you get your private tab. Please do check it, to make sure that I have input your picks correctly.
We all start with a perfect 20, and I will update once the first round is over.

by ktothem1 Question: I took Murray and he withdrew after the start of play. Do I get his Lucky Loser (Goffin) or am I just out of luck?

You, and two more Murray pickers, get Goffin.
I mean, you have to learn how to lose, ktothem1! ;)
by ponchi101 We would be ready to post first round results, but there are some matches pending. So, let's hope they can fill the slate tomorrow.
Will update ASAP.

by ponchi101 1R finally ended, so we have updated scores.
No perfect scores but a lot of players with fine scores overall. Cyborgshoes and Ironkine are on the lead, by the minimum.

by ktothem1 I had Nagal for ATP #4. The spreadsheet has "WON" but I believe that he lost to Kecmanovic (who did win in the second round). Thanks.

Correct. And corrected. Will show in the next updated sheet.

Please check, as I have already made some mistakes. I hope they all are corrected. -->
by ponchi101 I got really tight at the top, with several players grouped between 31-32 points.
And the fight for last place is also very tight, but I am involved in it so the other people can forget about the wooden spoon for the wooden spoon. I know that trick too well.

by ponchi101 Patrick has taken first place, and with 5 picks left, he looks very good to get his spoon.
Perennial champ Motobass has secured the wooden spoon of the wooden spoon, standing in last place and with no more picks left.

by ponchi101 Patrick is still on the lead, but Khotem will get at least one more player for the final.
Ain't over.

by patrick For me to guarantee winning, Rybakina or Krejcikova has to raise the Venus Rosewater Dish on Saturday.

Updated scores in the spreadsheet at the previous links. -->
by ponchi101 As Patrick said above, he guarantees victory is Paolini loses.
However, if Paolini wins and Novak loses, Khotem1 get a juicy bonus of 15 points and wins the spoon.

Updated scores in the spreadsheet at the previous links.
by weefunk Not that this matters at all now, but the points are incorrect for everyone who picked Davis in the WTA.

Davis lost to Osorio, who lost to Haddad Maia, who lost to Collins, who lost to Krejcikova, who won her next match.

But the scores have Collins winning against Krejcikova. which didn't happen.

Fortunately, as you say, the scores did not change by much, and only Patrick and Khotem1 are still in the run.
My mistake, as I misspelled KREJCIKOVA in one cell, and the sheet was looking for KRECJIKOVA, who never lost because she did not exist.
Thanks.

I misspelled it at least twice while writing the above post :-)

by ponchi101 Patrick was able to secure the wooden spoon thanks to the loss by Paolini on Saturday.
But Khotem1 secured second today with Djokovic's loss.

The wooden spoons were:
ATP
Ymer. The sequence was:
Ymer Draper Norrie Zverev Fritz Musetti Djokovic Alcaraz
WTA
Yuan. The sequence was:
Yuan Rus Sakkari Raducanu Sun Vekic Paolini Krejcikova

I have awarded Patrick his FOURTH spoon. Basically, he can feed a family with them ;)
Thanks to all for playing. See you at the USO :thumbsup:

by ktothem1 Very well done, Patrick and Irena. This was far and away my best score for YCWJ and I enjoyed it. See y'all at the US Open.
by patrick Happy with being a Channel Slam winner for 2024 like Alcaraz. Will enjoy while I can as Olympics and US Open are coming on the calendar.
