Roundup!

So its a big congratulations to JujulCactus who wins the Q-Ball US Open 2008 and extends their lead at the number one spot.

Congratulations must also go to -sugi- who was runner up and climbs back up the rankings to #2!

There has been some significant movement in this week's rankings! Fire_Fox who was absent from the US Open moves down to number nine, while those in the lower part of the Top10 moves up one space. Slavicpower and TatiNovic move up and are knocking on the door of the Top10!

Ganymedeyu and James climb into the Top20, while Karat0589, wimbledonwinner and Bart move up ever closer to the Top20! Bart came third at the US Open and climbed up 11!

New Haven winner tennisfan_77 also impressivley jumped from 54 to 36 and ----SVK---- simiarly jumped from 49 to 38.

Thanks all for playing. Enjoy the US Open and dont forget to play Q-Ball in a fortnight!
