Welcome to the 3rd (and final 2012) edition of the WTA Sudden Death League: The United States Open!.

Rules of the game:

1. Every day of the tournament that day's matches will be posted. You pick one player who you think is going to win. It's a knock out-system: if the player you picked wins, you're through to the next round. If he loses, you're out.

2. Till the Round of 16, you have to pick one player per day. In the R16, quarters, semis and finals you pick one player per round.

3. During a tournament, you can pick a player only ONCE. Obviously it's important to make smart choices in order to get far. If you somehow have no players left to pick, you're out as well.

4. You can't pick a player from a match that has started already.

5a. If the player you picked retires during the match, you're out. If he retires before the match, you're allowed to change your pick.

5b. If the opponent of the player you picked retires, it counts like a win. However, you can't pick a player whose opponent had already retired from the tournament.

6. If you want to change you pick, make a new post quoting the old pick. Edited posts containing picks will not be taken into account.

I will be away on the September 4 as I will be going to New York to watch the US Open!

As a result, I will not be able to update the League File. If you are interested in helping out with the day-to-day admin stuff for that week, please let me know. I will update the rankings when I get back on the Monday.
 
I'm in, and I want to do something for the ATP tournament depending on whether I have money (I just don't want to bump that thread). Is there any golfer here and have you heard about the Hammer?
 
This thread was so far buried on page 1 that I got scared we weren't doing this crazy fun!

First to pick here as well: Day 1, the lovely Julia Goerges!
