Welcome to the 8th event of the 2020 ATP Sudden Death League season: US Open

Play starts on Monday 31st August

2020 ATP SDL - LEAGUE FILE

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 he 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. As you cannot win a match by a walkover it is highly advised that you make a back-up pick to your main pick. Your pick and back up cannot be from the same match. If so, back up will be invalidated.

6. 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 unless you change your pick before your back up match begins.

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.

Similar to the ATP Tour we will retain the Rankings from 2019 for all tournaments from March through to the end of the year.

Post lockdown scheduled tournaments (ie French Open 2020) will be "better of 2019 & 2020". Improve your 2019 score and your total increases.

Beat last years US Open score and your ranking points total increases.
 
Why some of you picked only 1 player from bottom f.e and the others two? Do i have guess both to reach next round?
