Frontierers, the Draw Challenge is open if you want to play and make your picks.

I haven't done one in a while, so it's time to wreak havoc on your dreams of success. They say the bottom and deepest parts of the ocean have never been explored... Draw challenges are different. @mrzz has explored the bottom of the ladder on multiple occasions.

I joined the group and done it for the first tome. Hoping for some beginner's luck and to avoid the bottom. Just not sure how choosing Paire over Medvedev helps that.

"Ladder" is a good term, as in the absolute majority I am in the top three after the early rounds. Then it is a long way down...

But it is fun. Hope you enjoy it, @don_fabio. Good to see a new poster actively interacting and making good posts.

BTW mine's done too.

Got lazy and did not do it here. But, I did it TC's racquet bracket where they give cash prizes.

For bragging right, I am just mentioning the final four here.

I have JMDP beating Novak in top half. I have Ralph beating Fed in bottom half.

I have Ralph beating JMDP in the final to make it a dozen.

Impressive stuff. As I understood you usually miss plenty in the later rounds, but this time is opposite. I was doing quite well until Wawrinka beat Tsitsipas, sitting on top at one moment, but it all went downhill for me also after Paire lost to Nishikori. I am rookie in this stuff and need to tune my game. Good luck tomorrow ;)

Yep. This time I was in middle for most of the tournament and surged in the latter rounds. But if you pay attention actually all the scores are pretty close (except BB, of course).

Anyway I hope that tomorrow my bracket pick actually loses...

I did pick the winner, but I blame someone who pulled out for screwing my draw...Kyrgios? Oh, and some crappy picks. :lol6:

I misspelt Thiem as JMDP. Other than that spelling error, everything is good.

It is a pain in the ass when an errant slip of the finger or an early withdrawal screws your whole draw. Because otherwise, we're all surely geniuses.
