SW19 - Wimbledon Prediction League (Seventh in Series) Second of Grandslam editions!

I'm in favor of an increasing point scale as well as more points for correct winner as opposed to sets (if you think im biased, take a look at how important the 5 pointers were for me this time around...even though i didnt do well overall)

Looks like shadows is assured the victory even if he doesn't get his pick to me.

Final:

Roger in 3
 
Federer in 3. I've just forgotten so many evenings to do my picks. Sorry about that. It's much easier when the tournament is only a week long.
 
Gratzi to shadows on a well deserved victory. Good job all around. Glad we got through it w/o the bickering of the last slam. :D

My pick: Fed in 3.
 
I'm going to say:

Federer vs. Roddick - Roddick in 5 sets

I base that on nothing but flipping a coin and actually believe it'll be Fed in 4... but A-Rod in 5 is my final answer.
 
It was a great grass season for me! runner up on Halle and another possible runner up here. Too bad I want a trophy! That being said my prediction would be:

Roger in 3
 
THE CHAMPIONSHIPS, WIMBLEDON, 5-JULY-2009- DAY THIRTEEN (FINAL)

Roger Federer (SUI) [2] v. Andy Roddick (USA) [6]- Federer in 4
 
Congrats to shadows for the win and overall dominance!

Honorable mention to theduh as well for getting pretty close!

It's funny that the one time we use the percentages there are absolutely no ties in the scores. All that work for no good reason.

I also agree that the 3/5 breakdown would be better for future tournaments.


Thanks for playing everyone. See you in a month!

Thanks Seff for all the hard work you've done!

Thought that I'll have this one in the bag because I lead before the semis, hats off the shadows for edging me!

See you all in Canada.
 
Congratulations to the winner! And thanks too T_M and Seffina for providing this game.

My best result to date.. 4th place!

And I also agree with the 3/5 system.

See you in Canada.
 
On a side note, I should get 10 insted of 5 for the Winner/RU prediction. But not that it matters really, still ending 9th. (personal record) :)
See ya in the next tournament.
 
Thanks Seffina for a job well done.

I am pleased with my last few days. I moved up quite a bit from the quarters to the end with a lot of help from my semis picks.
 
A big thanks goes out to Seffina for a excellently done job on the scorings.

Shadows, TheDuh, JamesBlakeFan and Mizuno big shout outs .. next one with standings will be up come the next masters series.

I apologize for the mistake. I'm not quite sure how I made it. I noted down everyone's picks before the tourny started and had yours as Roger/Murray. Now that I've rechecked everyone's I see that you clearly stated Roddick in a viscous beatdown. Again, sorry.

------
I'm looking forward to the next few months of tennis as I plan on finally getting to watch some tennis in person!
 
A lot of fun as usual! Special thanks to Seffi for being so awesome, and to TM as usual for keeping it all rolling!

There's nothing to say sorry about, you are doing a great job getting the scores done. You are neither obligated nor getting paid to do it so we all should be grateful :)
