"Any players that withdraw after the deadline closes will earn the points that their lucky loser replacement wins."
Could be like finding Fabio Aurelio representing your team in place of Andrea Dossena...
I await my Aurelio....

I did take out Lopez last minute though. He has been dumped out by Beck

I saw that too but the BBC page has it down as 6-1 6-2 6-2 so it should have just been an 18 pointer. Hopefully they won't notice...Demo wrote:Yeah but Guillermo Canas 56! How?!!!.... The final set must have been 28/26 or something... must check the scores..

Re: Wimbledon Dream Team 2009
Canas should have 28 points (18 games won + 10pts for straight sets). They seem to have scored his match twice so the loser must also have 2*not much.

Re: Wimbledon Dream Team 2009
I forgot about the 10 points for straight sets, that makes sense with the doubling. I knew there was no way I could have scored so well I wonder if they'll notice (or if someone who doesn't have him will have to email them first... )murf wrote:Canas should have 28 points (18 games won + 10pts for straight sets).

Re: Wimbledon Dream Team 2009
They seem to be making a few mistakes. Yesterday I mailed them cos they forgot about Razzano's bonus 10 points for a straight sets win.

Re: Wimbledon Dream Team 2009
I lost 4 players in the first round
Still have one to play, so could lose 5
Had at look at the draw though, and confident i'll not lose more then 1 in round 2

Re: Wimbledon Dream Team 2009
I lost a quarter of my players in the first round. Not too disappointed by any other than Youhzny though, who I thought may have done OK. Lost my Japanese girl in the last match of the evening which was a little disappointing after she won the first set easily 6-2. Currently about 210th.

Anyone pick Tsonga?? Through, but with 0pts (opponant retired)
Also, surprised a few of you had Youhzny seeing as his first round match was against grass coust specialist and former top 10 Juan Carlos Ferrero (who i backed incidently ). Poor work lads
