The easiest of all Tennis games. Spice up this Slam.

Just post a team made of 3 WTA and 3 ATP players. And done. It's that easy.
Sit back and watch your team members earn points for your team throughout the Slam.

No oil change. No tires change. No washing. no vacuuming. No daily maintenance. :) :)
That's the Skan.. Only 4 times a year.

Can't submit/modify your team once the tournament starts.. Better, post a draft now. Revise later as necessary when the draw comes out. EASY !!!!!
Team must be submitted before the first R1 match

Cheering section-wada and clean players
Nadal(4) + Wawrinka(3) + Thiem(7) = 14

Will need to replace one of them. :)

Teams trickling in.. don't wait until the last minute...:)
Get your draft team on board... Modify after the draw if any conflict between your team members.
Who is wise enough to pick the winning ladies???? tough this time around. No clear favorite.
Good luck. !!!!!

I confidently stand by my choice of JoLa.

@Serve2Win I see Serena and Roger are still in the draw in this game. Since they are out won't the players ranked below them all rise one spot? I now see everyone placing players with the ranking they have with those two still in the ranking (Like Pliskova 3 instead of 2 etc.)

Edit: Never mind, I see it's by ranking, not seeding and Roger and Serena are not dropping out of the ranking of course. ;)

You got it.. They are listed by their rankings. It's more stable than seeding numbers.
I fixed your team.. You had the ranking wrong (you had Kiki 18 instead of 19, Muguruza 4 instead of 5, halep, etc).. All is good now !!!

I'm pretty sure I'm at the highest risk for that.
