Default Tour for Chokers starts soon: Who's in the draw?

List who you think will be playing in the all-time Chokers Tour starting in a town near you!! I think they will be the longest matches in history, as no-one will win!!
My first Nomination: RIOS

Tour of chokers, that would be so painful to watch! I don't know if anyone would want to go to see that. Sadists and Masochist maybe? Don't chokers only lose to top players,or when the pressure is on for them to win, so what would be the point of putting chokers against fellow chokers?

We could see the chokers become the chokee and therefore be so overwhelmed that they have to choke more, the world's longest matches would go on here, I'm thinking 5th set 100-98 scores and the like.

My nomination goes to Ljuby and Nalby, just need to tell them it's a slam semi first and their doomed to choke.

Can someone please define the word "choke." It seems to be used a bit too much. To me, the definition of a "choke" is J. Navotna shanking ball after ball when it came to closing out the Wimbledon match against Steffi. I don't see a lot of "chokes," I do see nerves though. But maybe my definition of a choke is just wrong. Can someone define it for me please?

I agree with you, but maybe they cant choke cause they are all little pushers

Umm do we all know what choke means? A score of 100-98 in the 5th set between two chokers would never happen, since someone whoulda choked way before they got to that point.
