How would you like to win one of Andy's match shirts?
Judy Murray has kindly given a competition prize to help us launch the new forum and give you,
the forum fans, an exclusive opportunity to win a piece of Andy memorabilia.
Here's what you have to do to be in with a chance:-
a) Predict the number of Aces Andy will hit during the Shanghai Masters tournament
b) If no-one gets the number of Aces exactly right the nearest guess +/- will count
c) As a tie-breaker please also predict the total number of games Andy will win in Shanghai.
d) the tie-breaker kicks in if more than 1 person gets the Aces correct (or closest to the actual score) and the closest games prediction will then decide the outcome.
e) Only one entry per forum member
f) In this instance edits allowed until the competition is closed
Deadline - start of Andy's first match in Shanghai.
Since he has a R1 Bye this is likely to be played Tues/Wed next week.
Good Luck

Aaargh! I wondered why others had guessed far fewer games than me and re-read the question - I've realised that I read the question wrong! I've based my guess on the number of games played not won - please may I edit it?

oo'err. Will check Linda.
If I'm allowed to change it, I'll say 67. Otherwise obviously I'll have to stick with 108. It's only the tiebreaker anyway so hopefully won't come into play.

Will this carry on now for the next match?
Actually with one less match to play, the guesses may well be way off.

Edits are allowed...
Hmmm, think I will edit again as it's one less match to play.
I was hoping this would have closed and my low prediction would be looking better now! Not that I am in any way disputing the decision of the mods where in this situation one decision helps some and the other decision helps others. The perfect example of why at times its just a pain to be the decision maker and normally you will hear the howls of protest most so just to be clear no howls from me honest.
why not just go lower then

(No prizes for 2nd place in this competition ;)- anyway, I wouldn't have wanted to deprive Minnie of the shirt on the tie-break!)

Yes, when I looked at the scores yesterday my first thought was "I've got a chance" and my second was "Oh dear, unless it goes to three sets I would beat Minnie on the tiebreak which isn't good"! Anyway, Vixs has won the shirt fair and square, no tiebreak required!:clap::clap:
