Q-Ball - Istanbul Cup (Week 2 - Qualifying Tournament Game)

Q-BALL

Q-Ball is a new game that was piloted at this years WTA Italian Open qualification tournament and is really simple to play.

Guess who the qualifiers are and who they beat in the final round of qualifying (through analysing the draw)

Points are awarded for:
7 - for guessing each correct qualifier and the player they beat to qualify
5 - for guessing each qualifier (but not the beaten finalist)
4 - for guessing both players in each final qualifying match
(but not the correct winner)
2 - for guessing one correct player in the final qualifying match

As of now you can play both events, but your ranking will only count your best score that week!

Please ensure that you submitt your picks before the start of the qualifying tournament; any picks posted after will not be counted.

Scores will be posted at the completion of the event

Enjoy the game and Good Luck everyone.

:help:

Dismal results to look at. :speakles: I picked her cuz I thought I had heard her a lot,but apparently not in the best way I guess. :lol:

Well,she's up against a WC in her first round.So I hope she can win that then receive a walkover in the next round,and SHE CAN BE IN THE FINAL ROUNDS. :woohoo:






Thanks for the information.I'll put my hope on Strasbourg then. :p

:lol: So she's one of that bagel girls right?That might've been why I felt so familiar with this name.

Btw jonny you can put me as Y.J.CHANfan instead of Y.J.Chan. ;)

Hercog d. Schaeffer
Palgina d. Ungur
Floris d. Tomic
Rodionova d. Zec P

Anja Poglajen def. Dilara Yurtkuran 76(3) 76(7) -saving 4 SPs :woohoo:

She was 3-6 down in the second set tb but she saved all 4 set points and came back to win. :hearts:

One more match to go. :lol:

OMG, I think I win this, since I have all 8 in QR3 correct. :drool:

Only a few had Sofia in R3, and they got others wrong. :banana:

Scores will be up later this afternoon. Thanks again for playing everyone!
