Well done Cate.
I'm pleased I made the board at least.

I hope even more people can play next week- It's going to be harder to get our predictions in every day for 14 days.  |

We should get tripple points for US Open as it's a slam  |

Second place behind Cate isn't all that bad. |

I don't understand how these weekly points work....... Invisibleman18 and top_spin both got 19 points in New Haven... so why does one get 4 points and the other gets 3 points? Also, me, scotsman75, and davidb all got 18 points, so why does only davidb appear in the leaderboard and get 1 point? |

Because he got more 'exact predictions' than you and Mike. He predicted the player and the number of sets in more occasions.

Ok I'm afraid it's really the fairest way possible, to separate joint scorers. We are looking into different methods however. |

Yeah I believr that's how I'm ahead of Julia and Lorna despite all 3 of us having the same points, I got more exacts. However the other 2 had the same, so there needs to be some way to separate people in that situation, rather than the toss of a coin (which rumour has it, is what happened to put Julia ahead ) So after first looking at number of exact predictions, I think perhaps next can be looking at the final and see who did better. If they both did the same, then no idea what you can do next? Joint points out of the question? |

We were thinking of separating them by who had the higher finish the week before. Joint points are not out of the question and that could happen if we do not find an alternative solution.
