Fantasy Tennis standings
US Open: Wed, Day Three of 15
The yo-yo effect is still in evidence within the Fiso Federation.
This season's form side, yorkshiredradon, moves from ninth to the top.
But bossdrum climbs even more impressively, up 15 rungs to second.
The previous top six all slide down, particularly Tuesday's front-runner.
Table (after 18 of 64 Round-2 ties) highlights teams in overall top & bottom 50.

Thanks for the kind words. It's a fine art to do it time after time
For the Australian Open I will try to do badly and then I might have a chance of doing well.
