Power Play League #116 - Rome Masters 2016

NYKings · May 7, 2016

WELCOME TO THE TALK TENNIS
2016 ROME MASTERS (05/01-05/08) POWER PLAY LEAGUE

Welcome to the fifth ATP Masters 1000 of the 2016 Tennis Year and our seventh Rome Masters event for the Power Play League!

HOW TO PLAY:

For each round of matches, we assign scoring points to each individual. For example, a match between Novak Djokovic (12,920) and David Ferrer (6,505) would have the following scoring points:

[1] N Djokovic (SRB) vs. [5] D Ferrer (ESP) - (7-14)

For the Internazionali BNL (Rome Masters), as it's an ATP Masters 1000 event, the player picks the winner of 16 out of 55 matches based on the provided scoring points. The scoring points are calculated by a mathematical formula based on the players’ rankings. The objective of the game is to pick a mix of upsets and "sure bets" that will give you the highest score. All matches will be posted in the thread with scoring points while also being available in the League File. We hope you all join and we can make this bigger and better than our previous events!

REMINDER: You can join at any time (even if you want to pick just the final) but to make all 16picks for Rome, you must make your first pick before the conclusion of the SECOND ROUND.

Rome Points Scale:

@Meles I don't think you are allowed to edit the post. You should rather quote it.

I think it will be OK since it was edited long before the remaining two matches had started. If NYKings already put in spreadsheet he would have caught the Ramos late pick. I'll be quoting from here on as one could easily edit post after match time and create all sorts of confusion/deception.

Ugh! I see I edited that post after Paire start, so that pick is gone too!
