US Open contests 2018 - Men and Women's Singles

[shari91]

There will be a separate contest for the men's and women's singles. This is a bracket contest that we'll be again which starts at the First Round of the US Open. According to the official site, the draw will be released on Friday August 24 and the first round starts on Monday August 27 locally so you'll have until that time to send me the link(s) to your bracket for the entire tournament. Keep in mind that you'll be choosing the winner of each match from the first round until the final before the first match goes off so leave yourself some time for deciding your picks. We will again be submitting our entries into a private pool over at The Tennis Channel but please remember that you'll need to enter their main contest pool as well if you want to be eligible for their prizes. I'll create the individual contest threads earlier than normal to both remind everyone that the contest is approaching and also just in case people have questions. I think that between those of us who have participated several times though we should be able to help out anyone who may be entering for the first time if I'm not around at the time they ask.

Entry fee will be 10 points for each contest and the top 10 from each contest will be paid. SBR has generously agreed to sponsor our contests again so you can pay me either in here or in the first post of the individual contest threads once they're made. Non Pros feel free to start transferring me 2 points a day now so you're paid up before it starts.

Any questions, let me know
