Welcome to the 16th event of the 2016 WTA Sudden Death League season: US OPEN

Play starts on Monday 29th August

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.

In. Gotta qualify for WTF

Yes, top 8 qualify for the additional bonus competition at the Year End Campionships. Regular competition is open to everyone though.

I guess we will be going back to the old-format bonus competition ? Last years didn't go down to well..:eek:

Yeah, I am talking about the bonus competition. Isn't it same as the ATP SDL? Last year I did not play WTA, so no idea what happened.

YES PLEASE :)

last years bonus was a little to insane and made the whole thing less fun and more stressful haha.


on the US Open note...the Caroline Wozniacki of SDL is in ;)
 
Hey that's what I call myself ;)
I'm number one in the US Open Series rankings!!! Yet i've never won a title. Never. Additionally i'm number 9 in overall rankings without a title. If it wasn't for Puig I would've won my first title with Kerber and it would've been Olympic Gold!

Kerber trolled me as well. in REAL Slam. :( These leagues are very hard. I'm not sure if I would get another shot like that ever again.
