In order to register for the main contest, it wants my address including a valid Zip Code :confused: It does not seem to accept a UK postcode.

A lot of times it's formatting that causes postcode to fail try it without a gap

If not put in a valid USA postcode.

I have had the same problem. I could enter the forum contest, but it wanted an address for the main one. I googled the address of the US Open site and used that one.

Yes, I used the zip code of a friend in North Carolina and it accepted it.

Thanks for this cazza. Will have no time again to do anything with this (as with wimbledon) - so this sounds grand. Will try to take part in the one you have set up.

It actually only takes around 5-10 minutes to set up. There are a few tweeks to do to settings - e.g. get people listed by alias names and not full names, only one entry per email, the scoring, set the password and how many tiebreaks you want - and that is about it.

Here are the results after the second day's play.

The lead has been taken over by fah51 and baseline pushers ​who are now in joint first. I'm still at the bottom, and getting further behind :sad:

Well done to Jo for getting through that traumatic match yesterday. :cheer:

Baseline pushers is now in the lead a point ahead of cazza, with fah and anor only two points off the lead, and linda only a point behind them. :)

Sadly, I'm still at the bottom and way off the pace. I think I'm resigned to getting eaten by the gorillas on this one. :sad:

Looks like I went into free fall after the quarter finals. Probably due to backing big hitters over retrievers.

Thanks cazza for getting this up and running, and helen too for updates.
