I took out the scores to determine the R3 detailed rankings and put the scores back. Someone should double check for accuracy.

Incidentally, whoever put the Stosur loss back in had entered W24 for Ostapenko, but W24 is Stosur's ranking. What??? She was playing herself and losing ... typical Sam ... but, sorry - that's a no go!

Anyway, please check for typo's and we're good to go!

P.s. Thanks for the support, rex. This wouldn't be necessary if the round by round rankings, which I greatly appreciate, had the D V Q breakdown. Anyway, it's no biggie ... Ace has done a great job with the SKAN.

listen-your final pleasure-to the voices,

Round 3 ... JazzNU continues to lead the pack, on the strength of awesome Domination points. As of R3 there were only 2 fully intact teams:

*Pandacris
*Laughing Cavalier

For some reason - I thought there was another day of Round 4 Action. Not so, so here we go /// with the R4 results. Pandacris surges to the lead as a result of being the only contestant with all 6 players surviving through the 4th round, which is really quite remarkable. Pandacris' full team comprises:

1. Nadal
2. Halep
3. Wawrinka
4. Pliskova
5. Mladenovic
6. Nishikori

Earlier I had remarked on how JazzNU was competing strongly despite having lost a player, due to very high domination points. So I took a look at the data to see what was behind this. Turns out JazzNu is the only contestant to have picked Cilic, and placed high up in the #2 seeding. That's been the difference for JazzNU. Well played!

Quarterfinals are done, and Pandacris has widened the lead ... substantially, and with four of the semi-finalists in hand will be tough to catch.

Which tier are you in?

I have been stuck in District RU90 since R1, thanks to injured Lucic, Konta and A.Zverez....
But Wawrinka can kidnap me and get me out there, I think, if he can win one more match.
Moving out of RU90 District this time would be a Great Escape that should be CELEBRATED !!! :)
The man loves his District... Does he own a Meldonium factory there? lol lol

Haha, you're funny. Well-done on beating my Random Skan team. I've already said many times that I don't play Skan for results.

Wow, can't believe it. This is the first time this man laughs at a joke.
