They have altered the scoring a bit.


SCORING

The TL;DR is win matches, earn points.

The longer version is that you need to pick five players for your team from each draw (so 10 in total):

- The Underdog (30 points per win) - A qualifier, lucky loser or wildcard

- The Surprise (25 points per win) - Another unseeded player in the draw

- The Possible (20 point per win) - One of the seeds between No 17 and No 32

- The Probable (20 point per win) - One of the seeds between No 5 and No 16

- The Star (15 points per win) - One of the top four seeds

They score points for every match they win - with 5 bonus points for each match they win in the second week, and 5 more bonus points for winning the tournament overall.

EXAMPLES

Your qualifier/underdog receives 30 points per main draw match win, plus 5 bonus points for each win from the quarterfinals onwards (e.g. Tournament win = 230 points, Finalist = 190, Semi-finalist = 155, Quarter-finalist = 120, 4th round loser = 90, 3rd round loser = 60, 2nd round loser = 30)

Your unseeded player receives 25 points per main draw match win, plus 5 bonus points for each win from the quarterfinals onwards (W 195, F 160, SF 130, QF 100, 4th 75, 3rd 50, 2nd 25)

Your seeded players (both Possible and Probable) receives 20 points per main draw match win, plus 5 bonus points for each win from the quarterfinals onwards (W 160, F 130, SF 105, QF 80, 4th 60, 3rd 40, 2nd 20)

Your top 4 player receives 15 points per main draw match win, plus 5 bonus points for each win from the quarterfinals onwards (W 125, F 100, SF 80, QF 60, 4th 45, 3rd 30, 2nd 15)

Yep, I did mine late at night as well!!! So, that's my excuse!! :lol::help:

[cazza99]

Just wish we had 2 tennis players in each group. But then everyone is in the same boat.

[cazza99]

I risked Kyrgios and he has withdrawn. Typical!!

[Genbrit]

Had to check as couldn't remember if I chose Kyrgios. I didn't but I know I thought about it!! Phew.......

[banskogirl]

Just noticing they still have Taylor Fritz in it but he lost earlier, didn't he?

Ok it take it they maybe get taken off tomorrow.

[cazza99]

I think there is often a delay between updates.

[Genbrit]

5th, yippee!! I have both Andy & Bautista Agut, so will definitely lose one of those. Hopefully BA, don't care how that affects this.

Apologies but I must be andymurrayfanforum. I was tired and confused when I filled in my choices and didn’t appreciate this would be my name! Next time I’ll try and get it right.
Well done Genbrit.
