There is an error for PDJ, Gary and Yukks.
Looks like you've given PDJ's 13 points to Romeo in the first part of the spreadsheet.
And Gary/Yukks haven't been keyed in.
Sorry to be a pain!
Cheers - I thought the problem was with my phone.
Also I got 15 points not 13. ;)
And I noticed the Murray match has been awarded the wrong points for some players. Maybe it's the code entered?
@gnana prakash I stumbled accross a formula error in the Rome tab that had some of the cells refering to the wrong rows. Easily corrrected with a paste of the formulas from above. That probably has addressed all this. It was for columns B to F so it doesn't look like it affected the rankings for the tournament. Very tired, but just happened upon this when I was surprised to have 15 points and I'd picked Thiem to win today.

Formulas cells etc are beyond me, but basic addition, that I can do! :)
What I don't understand is even if my score for the QF is incorrect, and those of others, is my overall total right?
Sorry, I appreciate this is an onerous task for you and @gnana prakash .

What I fixed on the Rome tab just affects the R1, R2, R3, etc totals for the players from GaryDuane on down. The Grand totals on the Rome tab and rankings are done directly from the grand total on the RomeM tab, so they were not affected by the mistakes and subsequent fixes.

So unfortunately it appears Gnana still has a strong lead for this one. It looks like Gnana has overall done well with his picks and strangely seperated himself from most the field with the pick of Kyrgios over Raonic in round 2 and some good sets picks. yukkks and bigD made up a lot of ground in round 3 with their picks of Pouille, Monaco, and Goffin. In hindsight I have to say that to me the Kyrgios pick over Raonic was not a big stretch given that Kyrgios had won their last encounter on hard courts; a top surface for Raonic. My own clay court handbook showed that Ferrer, Wawrinka, and Berdych are having awful seasons on clay by points won and their opponents had won a greater percentage of points this season (Pouille had won 50.5 to Ferrer at 50.8%, but Pouille had the head to head over Ferrer.) The head to head lied big time on the Berdych and Wawrinka matches. Its been a great tournament except for the rain today.:(
 
Semi-Finals

53.[1] N Djokovic (SRB) [6] K Nishikori (JPN) Djokovic in 2, 19 games
54.[LL] L Pouille (FRA) vs. [2] A Murray (GBR) Murray in 2, 17 games
Since Gnana and I appear poised to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory in the H2H Doubles (another 1 seed going down the drain.:confused: ), I'm updating my picks for the rain.

@AustinTx24 and @yukkkks (a newer player and one complete newbie;)) are in the driver seats for the H2H doubles win. I'd alter my Djoko pick, but they both already have Djokovic in 3, so Gnana and I stand a chance to make up 4 points on that match. I'm going with Murray in 3 (who has physical issues and might not like the dampness) in the 2nd match. If the following come through Gnana and I will have a 1 point lead with 1 match to go:
53.[1] N Djokovic (SRB) [6] K Nishikori (JPN) Djokovic in 2, 19 games
54.[LL] L Pouille (FRA) vs. [2] A Murray (GBR) Murray in 3, 27 games
 
The courts are being swept in preperation for the 1st match finally. Women's SF move off of central court so Pouille and Murray on soon. The crowd goes wild as Bernades shows up on the court to umpire the match.

Oops. The above change was too late and invalid as the match had already begun and was on rain delay. I did not see that any play had happened today. Oops.

Murray in 2 because I'm so far back I can vote with my heart.

@yukkkks and @AustinTx24 the H2H picks are killing me; the only 2 I believe to pick Djoko in 3. Once again Gnana and I (more I) have blown another #1 H2H seed. Thanks for making the defeat comprehensive as it saves me 2nd guessing my picks.;)

I have no clue how the doubles works. How can we be doing good in the doubles when we aren't doing that well in singles?

H2H Doubles started on Tuesday. Since then you and your partner are doing well.
You and your partner's picks made between QF-F are counted towards the H2H Final.
