Main draw play has started in St Petersburg so that part of Yazty is closed.
You can still enter the Vienna part if you wish up until 3pm UK time approx as there are 2 Qualifying matches to be played first starting 12noon UK.

Bad news for Jay and Yorkie - Dolly fell to Sela in R1 (2'6, 2'6) in St Pete's ...

I just saw J had gone for Dolly as his POW and thought oh no then I scroll down and see this.
Lets forget this week and move on. Anyone for YATZY next week?

Vienna has begun so Yatzy is closed for that also.

J, i had dolly as finalist and winner in St. Petersburgbeen a long day ta
Think I'll have to do this competition more objectively next time rather than putting faith in my favourite players! Can't believe Simon lost!!
My hopes rest on Davydenko, Chela and Granollers. Now thats probably a statement you never want to have to make!

Can't help feeling I'll come unstuck with Melzer as my Player Of the Week .....

Probably but if it comes off then you may well be the victor unless Tipsy wins in St P. All or nothing bets are the way to go for me as mid table just doesn't matter but the glory when a Davydenko won a tournament for me was fantastic and makes up for this time the dismal sight of seeing my POTW fall on day 1, probably about match 1 of the whole week.

I have Davydenko further than some, and Granollers as far as you have, but Chela? :confused: He's just gone out anyway!

Chin up Yorkie!!! http://smileys.sur-la-toile.com/repository/Boulet/0078.gif
http://i1192.photobucket.com/albums/aa337/j_acobite/10day3-1.jpg
That image is very squashed to me Jay, but it looks like you've eliminated Niemenen whereas Live Scoreboard shows him as having won today.
Davydenko, on the other hand ... :crying:
Could be worse, I could be Yorkie!
It looks squashed up to me too - makes it rather hard to read - especially the crossed out names.
Funny how in one tournament we've got nearly everything wrong so far, and in the other we've got nearly everything right so far!

Except poor old Yorkie.
One reason is that the top 4 seeds in Vienna had byes so have had less chance to be eliminated.
Who'd have thought that 3 of the 8 quarter-finals would be dead to us all.
Only Melzer(8) v Anderson(5) is a genuine swing match, although 4 of us are hoping Seppi can do some damage limitation against Cilic.
We all have Tipsy and nearly all DelPo (x Yorkie) and Jo-Willy (x Jay)

Thanks Jay, just noticed that Ace! and SuperG have both picked Tipsy as POTW despite picking Cilic to beat him in the final. Unusual tactic.

Wanted to try something different, time will tell if it was a bad idea........... booboo is not in my personal Dictionary so it's looking good
I wish Yorkie would peek out from the hole he's dropped in!http://smileys.sur-la-toile.com/repository/Divers/COFFIN12.GIF
Been away for a few days and looks like I din't miss much. Well as I've said before I go for the all or nothing approach and it looks like this week i was really trying for the nothing approach just Tipsy and Tsonga letting me down. J you can complete my misery by making my tournament winner of Davydenko red to show I definitely can score no more.
Ace! strange tactics on the POTW it just means you limited your chance of bonus points to semi and finalist and definitely miss out on tournament winner bonus points. Don't really see how this could be a good tactic.
So Tsonga and Cilic take the titles - which I think means Cazza wins this?
it dose indeed aces little " maneuver" cost him(and super G) the win

well done Cazza I just couldn't keep up with you this week - or anyone else for that matter.
Thanks guys. I'd been tied up with family stuff so I had no idea Tsonga had won or I'd won this. So its a nice surprise :)
And thanks Jay for running the comp :):)
