JTContinental is running the WTA draw, and I don't know his schedule. I think he is in US pacific time zone (GMT+9), which would make it currently 9:00 a.m. his local time.

Kerber is shown on the Order of Play for tomorrow 5/30, but not listed on Ponchi's Day 1 picks. Should she be on the Day 1 picks?

Thanks,

Yes. I have added her. I think she got missed because she was in the very last match listed in the Order of Play.

Dear moderator dave G: Hey, where's my Wimbledon 2012 medal gone? I'd really appreciate it if you could put it back in my info field. After all, it's all I've got to show for 12 years of incredible improbable frustration. Thanx!

Hello Tigress. Dave is not in charge of that. By the time you see this message, your medal will be re-instated.
Hope you will be luckier at the new site ;)

I've entered the suicide pools for years. I tried this year, but I can't figure out who to pick without the names being in order of the draw. Jumping between your list and a copy of the draw made me crazy. No real question, other than would you consider structuring the pool for Wimbledon the way it's been done in the past?

The WTA picks are NOT in that fashion, due to an internal problem. But we will try to do as you say
RG is special as the first day they do this half cooked picks for matches.
We will try ;)

Day 2 ATP seems to be missing some matches, e.g. Sinner and Federer matches.

Thanks for catching that. The French Open website Order_of_Play section is not well designed for cutting and pasting into text documents.
