Tennis Tipping #44a - Zhuhai




What is Tennis Tipping?

In the game, participants pick the winners of all main draw matches and are placed in a knock-out system. That means each participant plays a different participant and whoever predicted the winner of most matches correctly, moves on to the next round. The same applies for doubles, but you're in a team format and your scores are combined.

Note:
- In case of a tie, new SR/TB rules (2017) will decide who moves on to the next round.
New SR/TB rules: TB/SR Rules 2017 (determining the winner) - TennisForum.com

- If players are replaced by a lucky loser after the start of Tennis Tipping, these matches will be cancelled.

How to Sign-Up:

Only invited players can participate in this tournament

More information: Tennis Tipping General Rules 2017 | Changes in Red | Check pages 1-5 - TennisForum.com

How to send in picks:

Picks can be sent in as soon as the draws are ready. Remember, you pick a winner inevery match! Picks should be sent by PM, so that your opponent does not know your picks. Picks should be titled: [TT: Zhuhai - #day]. Picks can be sent in anytime until the beginning of play each day. If you are in singles and doubles then you can use different picks for each if you want to. For doubles, you still tip the WTA singles matches, not the doubles! No changes can be made after the play has started.

You have to send picks before play starts, late picks won't be accepted!


Good Luck, your manager DJDVD.

So In, only singles
Re: Tennis Tipping #44a - Zhuhai

The matches will be played as follow:

Day 1: the highest ranked player/team (A) will play against the lowest ranked player/team (B) (the other player/team (C) still has/have to send picks!)

Day 2: the loser of day 1 will play against the player/team (C) that hasn't played on day 1 (the other player/team (A or B) still has/have to send picks!)

Day 3: the winner of day 1 will play against the player/team (C) that hasn't played on day 1 (the other player/team (A or B) still has/have to send picks!)
This system. :spit:
Ok just to be sure, I don't have to send for day 1 right?? (Ranked middle in my group)

I don't get why C still has to send :tears:
Re: Tennis Tipping #44a - Zhuhai

You do have to send. In case of a tie (after 3 days RR) it will go to correct picks during these 3 days
I understand now. Thanks David :yeah:
Still this tournament is so weird with groups of 3 and this system to stablish who plays each day.

Group 1 very open indeed. I think Coco winning make Michael! win the group but if Vesnina wins it will depend on the SR of that match and the SR that Blackeagle got in day 1.

Rest of groups in singles decided already

Note for all the players who became 2nd/3rd in their group:

If somebody does not send for the semifinal then they will be replaced by the 2nd/3rd place finisher from their group
If somebody does not send for the final then they will be replaced by the player/team they defeated in the semifinal
This is really odd, specially the final part :confused:

Well, what a sad day for tennis :lol: Disgusting tank jobs in both dead rubber matches finishing with retirements. :help: I feel so stupid thinking Sloane would give a f. I should have seen this coming :facepalm:
I wonder why they haven't applied this same TT system to avoid these useless matches.
Oh well. It was a decent tournament winning both RR matches. Congrats Ianb29 :yeah:

Thanks David for managing. :worship:
This is the end of the Season for me. See you next year :wavey:

Thanks Javi, sorry that was a horrible way for you to lose but I did wonder if she might tank but wasn't expecting her to retire!
No problem, I deserve losing since I was really dumb not tanking into the consideration the high risk of tanking job or retirement happening. You were the smarter of the 2 :yeah:

Also Tim/Phil :smash:
