Going to pick one tournament per week for a contest to try and keep the tennis forum bumping.
Tournament Bracket

RULES
1. Entry fee is 10 points. Entry fee is due by the beginning of the first singles match in the tournament. That is Monday, January 31st at 8:00am ET for this tournament.
ANY ENTRIES SUBMITTED AFTER THIS DEADLINE OR ENTRIES SUBMITTED WITHOUT PAYING THE ENTRY FEE BY THE DEADLINE WILL BE VOIDED.
ENTRIES SHOULD BE SUBMITTED VIA PM ONLY TO EAGLESPHAN36.
2. Here's what you need to to submit for your entry:
*Select Your Champion: 75 points for a correct pick
*Select Your Semifinalists: 10 points for each correct pick, 60 bonus points if you pick all four correct.
*Select The First Seeded Player to Lose: 25 points for a correct pick. Please note that a loss is judged by round, so if two seeded players both go out in the same round then you will receive a percentage of the 25 points based on how many seeds lose.
EXAMPLE: If two seeds lose in the same round, you get 12.5 points for a correct pick. If three lose in the same round, you would get 8.33 points, etc.
*Pick one player to be your WOW: Winner of the Week.
This player will net you points for each win they get in the tournament. For every win they net as a favorite, you will get ten points. For every win they get as a dog, you get 25 points. For a LOSS as a money line favorite over -200, you LOSE 20 points.
Each day, I will post the lines for the matches courtesy of 5Dimes so you know what the prices wind up being for each match-up.
So your entry should look like this:
Champion: Cilic
Semifinalists: Cilic,Gasquet,Garcia-Lopez,Ljubicic
1st Seed to Lose: Gasquet
WOW: Karlovic
PAYOUTS WILL BE BASED ON THE NUMBER OF ENTRIES AND ANNOUNCED ONCE THE ENTRY DEADLINE HAS PASSED.
IN THE EVENT OF A TIE, THE TIE BREAKER IS THE # of POINTS ACCUMULATED BY YOUR WOW PLAYER. THE 2ND TIE BREAKER IS CORRECTLY PREDICTING THE CHAMPION. A THIRD TIE BREAKER IF NEEDED WOULD BE THE # OF SEMIFINALISTS PICKED CORRECTLY. IF THE TIE IS NOT BROKEN AFTER ALL THAT, THEN THE POINTS WILL BE SPLIT BETWEEN ENTRANTS TYING FOR A CERTAIN POSITION.
