They aren't going to be tonight now, percy must have his hands full! Nalbandian Open promises to be KEY for YEC, how much drama is this! I would say now it is perhaps the most interesting thing ever to happen in Fantasy Tennis! It is really good, especially since three members are involved! I just hope I keep some of my form and make a SF +, doubt it though!

No idea he did mention he changed his schedule though due to that mishap where he missed a tournament, I will guarentee he qualifies after that though. I still don't think I will qualify myself!

I do think Phobe will miss out. He/She (I am too lazy to go look) has already lost a few points at the Sharapova Cup, and has even more points to defend. I have two events (Nalbandian and Berlin) where I lost first round in last season to try and add points and possibly make up for not getting to a final at the Mauresmo Masters. Then there is you, who, no offense, was mediocre last season around this time.

Lol, I know, how I am reaping the rewards! The two Tier III Finals do look slightly threatening though! I don't think Phobe lost any points for Sharapova? And she is consistent enough to get to the QF each time which means all three of us will have to better her really. Hard work!

I got it wrong, Phobe has either on or two Tier I sem's to defend. That will be hard because first of all, it is unlikely it will be a top 4 seed, there is no chance for a bye. It could face people like Leftys, Agassi, Jbors (if he would play bigger events), and other low ranked, dangerous players. Then if they would get to the quarters they could face Jenna, JoJo, Child, Bizet, NEA, Dave, ect., ect.

draws are out. Dave is in Bulgaria 
anyway, in Argentina NEA is the top seeded member. he will open against Aztec with a chance to stop Phobe from defending her semi here in the quarters. I am the 6th seed and open against Avolt, after that either Trinky or Mollusk. Doublea is the 7th seed, he plays Dreyfus, then either Bizet or Jbors. J-man is the 8th seed and plays Stroganoff, then Child or Leftys
|

that's just great, i get tennis fan, he can probably beat me

I think I can get by Dreyfus, then I have a tough match against Bizet or Jbors. I think I might have a run here....

I just want to beat Bizet in this one and then I dont really care what happens afterwards.

Just noticed Im not playing today. So I have to wait 2 more days for some results, which will probably be bad anyway. And btw I am playing in the Vaidisova event.

I hope this is not your way of saying you are trying to crawl into the YEC by playing lower Tiers? Good luck...
Anyway, what is the rest of your schedule? I will detail mine:
Nalbandian
Vaidisova
Mauresmo
Canadian
Four high Tiers, hopefully I can pick up the points I need!
P.S. PSALT will win the Nalbandian Open, or definitely make the Final! I will lose in the QF to Phobe. Those are my predictions...

no you will beat Phobe, she needs to lose so us three can make it!
Schedule,
Nalbandian
Berlin
Mauresmo
possibly the Greek Tier III or Canadian Open
for the last one, I will only enter if I don't think I will make the YEC if I don't. I would prefer the Tier III because it is on carpet, but I will enter the bigger Canadian Open if I have to.

This is so tense. You, myself dav and Phobe have (-2) (+3) (+1) every time the rankings are updated, in other words we are just constantly switching places! If I can beat Phobe I think the three members can make it! We just have to bully her out of it...

She also has a semi to defend in Canada, that will be hard for her. Stevos, Doublea, yourself, and quite possibly Jbors among other could meet her in the quarters there.
There is one good thing, atleast two of us will make it, one will be the alternate. The two that qualified could witness Phobe having an "accident", then the other one could then come take her place.

My schedule looks like this right now, but I may have to enter a Day 42 tournament aswell....
Day 39: Bulgaria Challenge
Day 40: Austria Tennis Trophy
Day 41: Berlin International
Day 42: No Tournament
Day 43: Canadian International
I had a couple more higher tier events in there before, it was all planned out. But I had to enter Bulgaria, I really can't be losing any more points right now. After Bulgaria I will see where I stand, but right now this is my schedule. I'm not trying to crawl into the YEC, NEA, I am trying to stop losing even more points.

previews out. I always stand by my picks, but I wasn't feeling the "Fantasy Tennis Picking Spirit", so they could easily all be wrong. that was pathetic, I know.

I changed my schedule, I pulled out of Berlin in favor of Vaidisova. I did it to capatalize on any confidence now, also so I will have a day of rest before Mauresmo Masters, and also so if I need to play in Canada or Greece I won't be playing three days in a row.

This is ridiculous. Why in this game do players on "form" suddenly collapse. Aztec? What? Aaaaa!!! I KNEW I wouldn't end up qualifying for this stupid thing. Phobe is all of a sudden playnig well, hmmm, interesting. I wonder whether I should do a dav and enter the lower Tiers. I just KNEW IT!

Aztec isn't bad, he made the USO semi's. You must also remember you have played quite a bit as of late, and made the late rounds of almost all of them. Maybe you were just tired?

Vaidisova is the make or break event, make the semis and I think you will make it. really, I think the race is between you and Dave now. it's still possible Phobe or I will miss out, but I think we will make it.

I agree a showdown between the two brits. It is in dave's hands though because I have two Tier III Finals to defend! That is not so good. I thought I could do it with the confidence and momentum I had but then I have this random loss to Aztec. I have to ask why? But I just have to get on with it. Dave can just play freely and he is more than consistent enough to just make a few Semis or Finals and qualify!
