Welcome to the fourth event of the 2016 WTA Sudden Death League season: Indian Wells

Play starts on Wednesday

Draw - http://www.wtatennis.com/SEWTATour-Archive/posting/2016/609/MDS.pdf


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. 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.

We will be picking 9 pick's for this tournament.

Every single pick today won, that has to be some kind of WTA record lately.

Crazy considering I was watching Watson's match earlier today and she was down 2-5 in the opening set. I left to go workout and I figured well I'm out of the WTA SDL on day one again. I can't say I was expecting much, lol. Nice to see she rallied and won the match. That shows good fight on her part, and she'll be someone I root for!

We're getting the hang of this..I certainly know more WTA players now and follow it a bit more. :)

Another 16 x 1st round matches today if anyone wants to play.

2nd round starts Friday (when we will be picking from the top half of the draw).
