Wozniacki beats Abanda 6-0 6-0 ... Tons of Domination points. Luckily, Caro is not in any team. :)
Someone forgot to tell Abanda this was Fed Cup.

With the Tsonga defeat, Round 1 of the 2017 RG Skan is in the bag. Sphrontanacier leads the pack with 286 points, a 7-point lead over Pingpong0_, with JazzNU sitting a further point back in third. The leading team, Terre gagnante, comprises

1. Nadal
2. Halep
3. Muguruza
4. Thiem
5. Pavlyuchenkova
6. Goffin

55 teams lost at least 1 player in R1 [with 1 contestant mistaking this for You Can't Win Jack and losing 5 of 6]. This leaves 15 teams through R1 fully intact:

Sphrontanacier
PingPong0_
JazzNU
MunchmaQuchi
TERRASTAR18
Borenore2
Zvezda_red
Charlie02123
Pandacris
LaughingCavalier
Tiko
RandomSkan [yes, you read that right]
Pazo77
Ribbons
Brens

On to Round 2!!!
go firmly to the window
and listen with deep emotion,
but not with the whining, the pleas of the coward;
listen-your final pleasure-to the voices,
to the exquisite music of that strange procession

Someone please take a screen shot of the standings as they are right now...hurry

This may never happen again and I know Peter, Grav and Ace have been keeping me or trying to keep me down for years

But like my boy I refused to give up and today I my July 2011 :-)

You have three men at the top, Zvevda?? It's working for now, but you won't maximize the ladies' championship points.

Oh well, go Zvevda :)

He doesn't expect any lady to make the Semi Final. :) So he doesn't need them. Good strategy here.#ed_op#br#ed_cl#What he really wanted is to have 6 men in his team.#ed_op#br#ed_cl#

i'm shocked my 3 girls are all still in the tournament. the draw is much more stable with the men, in my opinion.

I don't think anyone would be shocked if none of the top 4 ladies were in the semis.
