Welcome to the 11th official event of the 2018 ATP Sudden Death League season, and the first major tournament of the European Clay Swing:

Monte Carlo Rolex Masters
Monte Carlo, Monaco
15 - 22 April, 2018


RULES (Regular Masters 1000 Event):

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. Make 1 pick per day (for the last 3 days this will effectively be picking by round for QF, SF and Final). Day 1 will be a combined Sunday/Monday. Order of play for each day will be linked.

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. 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.

Oh no it’s one pick a day?!

Gah I was pretty confident before the sunshine double but let’s see how long I’ll last now.

^^^Are the Monday matches already listed? Neither Kohlschreiber ( by @milk of amnesia ) or Raonic (by @RS92 ) are on Sunday's list of matches??? In Kohlie's case, I'm almost certain the TD will not schedule that match on Monday due to Sandgren's travel schedule from Houston, where he could be playing Sunday.

If tomorrow he is not on Monday's schedule I'll change my pick. Until then, Raomug is my day 1 pick. Hopefully he will play on Monday because Day 1 seems to be tough this year in MC.

@stringertom: Thanks for the head's-up. I was thinking that all the first-round matches would be done by the end of Monday. If Kohli isn't on Monday's schedule, I'll make another pick.

Like I said, Sandgren will get a pass til Tuesday even if he loses today...shortest flight to Nice/M-C is 13 hours and he loses 7 hours on the clock. He's in a 1st set TB right now vs Ivo (surprise!:rolleyes:).

If he advances to the final, it might be a smart pick despite his good form, due to jet lag...if he doesn't pull out.
 
Ok, super confused right now. If my Sunday/Monday pick has to be from round 1 then can my Day 2 (Tuesday) pick also be from round 1? Or do I have to pick a different round for each day?
