Welcome to the eighth event of the 2015 WTA Sudden Death League season: WIMBLEDON

Current Rankings - League Rankings and Race

Rules of the game:

1. It's a knock out-system: if the player you picked wins, you're through to the next round. If she loses, you're out.

2. 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.

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

4. NEW RULE for 2015 - 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

5. 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.

6. If the player you picked retires during the match, you're out. If she retires before the match, your back-up pick will be used.

7. 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.

So what half starts? I know it says bottom half up there but I thought kvitovas half would start first and play monday? Or.does the tourney not start till Tuesday this year?

I'm in. I'm a bit confused though. Top half (men and women) will open proceedings on Monday. So, do we make our first pick then or wait until Tuesday for the bottom half?

Thanks.

Serena's half will play on Monday. Yeah, I think we need some clarification.

The order of play isn't out yet .... normally defending champion (Kvitova) opens play on Tuesday so it's likely to be Serena's half (top half) that plays Monday.

I think I'm done with WTA SDL. Way too unpredictable for me. It doesn't matter the rankings of players. Upsets are too common.

Just saw her opponent was the junior Wimbledon champion last year. I should have checked her out before picking CSN.

Oh, well!

Haha I agree. It is quite pathetic. I'm actually surprised many are tipping Stosur. She has a very bad record at Wimbledon. But I just don't let the WTA SDL matter to me as it's so unpredictable.

Yup! I was like wildcard, let me guess ranked in the 600's. Checked her wiki and see she won junior last year which is why she has the wildcard i guess. haha!
