Go Kvitova! (If she wins this, I guess I might have 3 Kvitova +20s for Wimbledon)

Yes I can. If everyone else loses early. Because my two +20s mean that I have a 240% bonus while you only have a 170%

Can someone explain how the points are calculated again? It's been asked before but I can no longer find the post. :unsure:
By the way, my Hantuchova comes with a 10%. I'm not sure if this is taken into consideration when calculating the points.

You get the same number of points that your players are getting. That number is multiplied by your bonus. So if you have a Li Na +20 on your squad for Roland Garros, you would get 2000 points times 1.2 since you have a 20% bonus. In total you would get 2400 points.

Unless Kuzy somehow manages to turn the table around, I'm having my second casualty.

Even though the Kuznetsova Cibulkova match isn't over yet, I have some news.
Nufflemutts will take over the lead regardless of whether Kuznetsova wins or loses.
Ianto Jones will be in second place
The Kuznetsova Cibulkova match has been suspended due to rain.
Seven people were eliminated today.

That's why I never got the calculations correct. :o I was using this (http://www.wtatennis.com/SEWTATour-Archive/Rankings_Stats/howitworks.pdf).

That is correct. Because each day the points are recalculated, you add 80 and 60. When you lose, you get points for the round that you got knocked out in. Because you get 200 points for reaching the Eastbourne Semis and 120 for reaching the quarterfinals, you get 80 extra points for that victory.

It all makes sense now. I feel so dumb. I guess this further proves I have no business with WTA rankings system. :tape: Thanks for the clarification.

Don't worry about it. The WTA wants to make everything as impossible to understand as possible. (Thats why they got rid of tiers and added premier and international)

At least I think that's what you get since that's what we've been doing for the past few weeks... But make sure Facepalmarenka meant that since he/she didn't mention anything about it in the Commitments page
