Same as the women's contest. You picked "qualie" twice when both players in the match were qualies = 2 voided picks.

It's a pretty awesome contest and now that WillHill has sponsored the last few the prizes have really jumped! The next one will be for the Aussie Open in January so you've got some time to sharpen up before then. I'll hound you to enter when the time comes

had Isner in the semis and must've forgotten to delete the L from Nadal.

[shari91]

Damn... was hoping you didn't notice that L. Was going to disqualify that pick in the next round due to spelling.

Isner and Tsonga seemed to mess most of us up this past round.

LOL what kind of fukkin picks are these

[WillC]

wow, Fed just cleaned up about half of the entries
djoko/murray finals backers have got this unless berdych can pull of an upset

[Goat Milk]

sucks that fed lost

if murray wins the tourny i automatically take 1st

[EmpireMaker]

You don't have to worry about that

[Goat Milk]

You don't have to worry about that

i never once picked murray to win a slam in the last decade. something felt like this was his to lose. i still think him and djoker are in the finals here. gonna be a great final maybe even live up to some of the fed nadal wimbledon classics

[EmpireMaker]

it certainly is a nice setup for him but Djoker is still in

[shari91]

First time I pick Fed in one of my contests and look what happens! I think I Landered the poor guy

I don't think Murray has much chance if he fluffs around like he tends to do. One of the big 3 would've ended yesterday's match in straights but Cilic being Cilic couldn't. Would be nice to see Murray finally win a Slam though.

Still can't believe Fed. To lose to Berdbrain of all people but to be fair he had a brilliant match. Sucks nards though.

Shari, I think I have 5 more points. Maybe you missed one of my quarter finalists? I had 6 of them. Thanks for checking!

[EmpireMaker]

there was a walkover and a retirement that don't count

[aggieshawn]

Shari, this is going to sound real bad now.

But you missed my entry for the Mens Contest..

Please double check your pm's. I was only checking the ladies events and you received that one.

Double bad news is I have Joker and Murray in the final with Murray Winning.

The retirement will still count because the first set was completed but I completely forgot about Fed's walkover. Man I hate doing this stuff in a rush... will go back and correct everyone's scores now. Cross I'll double check yours although Fed won't count so it might be right already.

[Noles1992]

Yes I also had 6 going to the qtr. finals with 3 advancing to the semis. and think still missing 5pts. so maybe it was the walkover that is the difference?

[Goat Milk]

shari you were quiet today

what do you think about murray winning

i think murray is the guy to beat on tour now to be honest

wouldn't be surprised to see him win 2/4 slams next year. my prediction?

austrailian- murray
french- federer or nadal
wimbledon- federer or nadal
us open- djokovic or murray

[vladfan]

Another great contest, thanks again Shari. Congrats to all the winners.

Had kiddie music class this morning so I missed the first two sets and didn't have any bets on. I'm going to have to watch the entire match to try to get a feel of it all. Seems the part I missed is when the wind was the worst so I want to see how they were both dealing with it. I think this win will finally open the floodgates for Murray at least on the hard courts as you've suggested. Not sure if I'd take Fed on Wimbledon yet... too long between now and then for his form to go screwy again. At least it's made things exciting again. With Fed nearing the end and Nadal's body unreliable, it would be boring if it was always just Djoko and whomever's left for him to slaughter.

[EmpireMaker]

sucks that fed lost

if murray wins the tourny i automatically take 1st

Nice Picks Goat
