I doubt Sasha Zverev is ready to win a Slam, best of 5, yet. But one never knows..... And the women, oh goodness! None of them instill much confidence in me, that there is a clear favourite. Oh of course Garbine is being touted as the clear favourite, and although she had a great summer, it's not like she won Stanford, Toronto and Cincy....which would have been super difficult anyway. I really don't know whom to pick out of all the possibilities. Re:2017 USO Skan ContestHi Deelia - Nice to hear from you. Happy Skanning!  P 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 Re:2017 USO Skan Contest#ed_op#span class="genmed"#ed_cl##ed_op#span class="genmed"#ed_cl##ed_op#span class="genmed"#ed_cl##ed_op#b#ed_cl#Manager: #ed_op#/b#ed_cl# #ed_op#font color="red"#ed_cl#Miffedmax#ed_op#/font#ed_cl##ed_op#br#ed_cl##ed_op#b#ed_cl#Team Name: #ed_op#/b#ed_cl# The Legion of Blondes#ed_op#br#ed_cl##ed_op#b#ed_cl#Points: #ed_op#font color="red"#ed_cl# 0#ed_op#/font#ed_cl##ed_op#br#ed_cl##ed_op#/b#ed_cl##ed_op#span style="background-color:#ddcc88"#ed_cl#D=0 |V=0 |Q=0 |#ed_op#/span#ed_cl##ed_op#br#ed_cl##ed_op#br#ed_cl##ed_op#b#ed_cl#Roster:#ed_op#/b#ed_cl# (rank_sum=79)#ed_op#/span#ed_cl##ed_op#br#ed_cl##ed_op#table style="border: 1px solid #e3e3e3;" width="100%" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="1"#ed_cl##ed_op#tbody#ed_cl##ed_op#tr bgcolor="#ffffff"#ed_cl##ed_op#td class="genmed"#ed_cl##ed_op#nobr#ed_cl#ATP##ed_op#font color="brown"#ed_cl#3#ed_op#/font#ed_cl##ed_op#/nobr#ed_cl##ed_op#/td#ed_cl##ed_op#td class="genmed"#ed_cl##ed_op#nobr#ed_cl#Roger Federer#ed_op#/nobr#ed_cl##ed_op#/td#ed_cl##ed_op#td class="genmed"#ed_cl# 0#ed_op#/td#ed_cl##ed_op#/tr#ed_cl##ed_op#tr#ed_cl##ed_op#/tr#ed_cl##ed_op#tr bgcolor="#eeeeee"#ed_cl##ed_op#td class="genmed"#ed_cl##ed_op#nobr#ed_cl#WTA##ed_op#font color="brown"#ed_cl#1#ed_op#/font#ed_cl##ed_op#/nobr#ed_cl##ed_op#/td#ed_cl##ed_op#td class="genmed"#ed_cl##ed_op#nobr#ed_cl#Karolina Pliskova#ed_op#/nobr#ed_cl##ed_op#/td#ed_cl##ed_op#td class="genmed"#ed_cl# 0#ed_op#/td#ed_cl##ed_op#/tr#ed_cl##ed_op#tr#ed_cl##ed_op#/tr#ed_cl##ed_op#tr bgcolor="#ffffff"#ed_cl##ed_op#td class="genmed"#ed_cl##ed_op#nobr#ed_cl#ATP##ed_op#font color="brown"#ed_cl#11#ed_op#/font#ed_cl##ed_op#/nobr#ed_cl##ed_op#/td#ed_cl##ed_op#td class="genmed"#ed_cl##ed_op#nobr#ed_cl#Milos Roanic (-)#ed_op#/nobr#ed_cl##ed_op#/td#ed_cl##ed_op#td class="genmed"#ed_cl# #ed_op#/td#ed_cl##ed_op#/tr#ed_cl##ed_op#tr#ed_cl##ed_op#/tr#ed_cl##ed_op#tr bgcolor="#eeeeee"#ed_cl##ed_op#td class="genmed"#ed_cl##ed_op#nobr#ed_cl#WTA##ed_op#font color="brown"#ed_cl#9#ed_op#/font#ed_cl##ed_op#/nobr#ed_cl##ed_op#/td#ed_cl##ed_op#td class="genmed"#ed_cl##ed_op#nobr#ed_cl#Venus Williams#ed_op#/nobr#ed_cl##ed_op#/td#ed_cl##ed_op#td class="genmed"#ed_cl# 0#ed_op#/td#ed_cl##ed_op#/tr#ed_cl##ed_op#tr#ed_cl##ed_op#/tr#ed_cl##ed_op#tr bgcolor="#ffffff"#ed_cl##ed_op#td class="genmed"#ed_cl##ed_op#nobr#ed_cl#ATP##ed_op#font color="brown"#ed_cl#17#ed_op#/font#ed_cl##ed_op#/nobr#ed_cl##ed_op#/td#ed_cl##ed_op#td class="genmed"#ed_cl##ed_op#nobr#ed_cl#Jack Sock#ed_op#/nobr#ed_cl##ed_op#/td#ed_cl##ed_op#td class="genmed"#ed_cl# 0#ed_op#/td#ed_cl##ed_op#/tr#ed_cl##ed_op#tr#ed_cl##ed_op#/tr#ed_cl##ed_op#tr bgcolor="#eeeeee"#ed_cl##ed_op#td class="genmed"#ed_cl##ed_op#nobr#ed_cl#WTA-ns##ed_op#font color="brown"#ed_cl#38#ed_op#/font#ed_cl##ed_op#/nobr#ed_cl##ed_op#/td#ed_cl##ed_op#td class="genmed"#ed_cl##ed_op#nobr#ed_cl#Johanna Larsson#ed_op#/nobr#ed_cl##ed_op#/td#ed_cl##ed_op#td class="genmed"#ed_cl# 0#ed_op#/td#ed_cl##ed_op#/tr#ed_cl##ed_op#tr#ed_cl##ed_op#/tr#ed_cl##ed_op#/tbody#ed_cl##ed_op#/table#ed_cl##ed_op#br#ed_cl##ed_op#span class="gensmall"#ed_cl##ed_op#nobr#ed_cl##ed_op#b#ed_cl#Total Active Players:#ed_op#/b#ed_cl##ed_op#font color="red"#ed_cl# 5#ed_op#br#ed_cl##ed_op#br#ed_cl#Raonic is Out#ed_op#br#ed_cl##ed_op#/font#ed_cl##ed_op#/nobr#ed_cl##ed_op#/span#ed_cl##ed_op#/span#ed_cl##ed_op#/span#ed_cl# Last edited by Ace2Ace on Aug Mon 28, 2017 7:24 am, edited 1 time in total. <font color=brown>@ <b>PeterSkan</b>:</font> First we need some names to go out early... And I guess that no one is really confident about their own picks, so the risk of getting egg on your face is too big. I picked two personal faves (Kasatkina and Pouille) and no one else dis, so really an all-or-nothing team. My four others are 'safer' picks (Garbine, Badal,Federer, Svitolina).

Got my complete team into R2, and my risky ATP'er is already in R3 (Pouille).... WTA-wise, I was doubting between Kontaveit and Kasatkina, and went for Daria. Good choice as she is into R2, and Annett isn't...
