Welcome to the 2nd Grand Slam of the 2015 ATP Sudden Death League season: Roland Garros
Rules of the game:
1. Every day of the tournament that day's OOP 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. You have to pick one player per day through the Round of 32. The only exception is that Day 1 will be a combined Sunday/Monday. In the round of 16, quarters, semis and finals you pick one player per round.
3. You can pick a player only ONCE. Obviously it's important to make smart choices in order to get far. If you have no picks remaining, you're eliminated from the competition.
4. You can't pick a player from a match that has started already.
5. NEW RULE - You cannot advance to the next round via a walkover since it is hard to know exactly when someone announced they were pulling out HOWEVER this rule does not apply once you reach the semifinals
6. Since you can no longer win a match by a walkover it is highly advised that you make a back-up pick to your main pick - when listing your picks make sure you specify which is your back-up.
7. If the player you picked retires during the match, you're out. If he retires before the match, your back-up pick will be used.
8. If the opponent of the person you picked withdraws and is replaced by a lucky loser your original pick will stand unless you specifically change it.
9. NEVER edit your pick. If you want to change your pick, please quote your old pick and choose a new player. Edited posts will not be taken into consideration.

Note: If there are forum issues that cause another major disruption during the running of this event, please check the French Open spreadsheet in the League File for alternative instructions. In the worst case emergency scenario, we might consider accepting picks via e-mail, but this is only possible if you have the League File handy. I highly recommend you save/bookmark the link to the League File as a precaution.
Also, Rome points will be added to the Race/Rankings in the next couple of days.
