Welcome to the Barcelona Ladies Open in yes, yes you're right, in Barcelona! This is the 128th tipping tournament, 14th in 2011 and 2nd in red clay.
Tournament history
This tournament debuts in Tipping this year.
HOW TO PLAY
If you still don't knot what "Tipping" is. I tell you that Tipping is like Tennis Tipping but different. You don't play other people and you don't have to tip the score which makes it an easier game to play. Everyone can play!
Playing Tipping is very easy. I will post the schedule and then you just tip who you think will win. Just type "in" to play (this will make my life easier but if you forgot to post "in" this is not the end of the world).
e.g If the schedule was...
Ivanovic vs Sharapova
V. Williams vs S. Williams
This is how you would tip...
Ivanovic
V. Williams
It is only main draw singles matches and only those posted in the original Order of play for a given day.
If there's 1 point played in a match then the match counts (walkover or retirement doesn't count).
Deadline for posting your tips is until the scheduled start of the first match of the day, so check this info due to time zones etc.
For the final match you will also need to guess how many games will be played. This will work as a tiebreaker.
Do NOT edit your post. If you want to change your picks do it in a new post. Edited posts will make all your picks invalid.
SCORING
First Round = 1 point per correct tip
Every additional round = one point more than for the previous, per correct tip
How to solve ties
1. The player who guessed the winner.
2. The player who is closest in games guessed.
3. The player who posted the fastest post in the final. If no one posted in the final go backwards to the semis and so on.
4. The player who got the most correct picks in the semi final. If the same, move backwards to quarterfinal and so on.
BONUS POINTS
Win: 120
F: 80
SF: 60
QF: 45
Good luck everyone:wavey:

Order of play: TUESDAY
Sara Errani vs. Maria-Teresa Torro-Flor
Gisela Dulko vs. Kimiko Date-Krumm
Nuria Llagostera Vives vs. Virginie Razzano
Laura Pous-Tio vs. Barbora Zahlavova Strycova
Ekaterina Makarova vs. Mirjana Lucic
Iveta Benesova vs. Lucie Hradecka
Alberta Brianti vs. Tsvetana Pironkova
Polona Hercog vs. Jamie Hampton
Elena Baltacha vs. Varvara Lepchenko
There are rumors (pretty soon to be confirmed or denied) that Makarova withdrew. Rumors also say that a LL will be subed in. Or maybe Lucic will receive a W/O. I don't know.
In any case I think that match should not be counted towards anyone, as it was not on the original order of play as stated in the first post rules.

Points count towards the rankings even if you choose to retire from the event. Of course, given your ranking, you "probably" won't benefit much from Barcelona, but points still have to be calculated. So Beesley, don't remove Elle-marie's score.
