Oops: apologies if hopes were raised.

On reflection, with just four players standing, Shaggy365 looks the odds on favourite now.

Wouldn't be surprised if those who regularly target the wooden spoon are hopping mad...
These upstarts who think they know what it takes to finish last. I haven't got where I am today in fantasy tennis by not coming last. It's an art form.

Only 3 players left and it's only been going 4 days. If I carry on at this rate, I'll have -17 players by the time the finals come around.

And I'm last in the FISO league, Quality always shines through in the end.

Only 1 match unfinished in each of the mens and womens 2nd round so a fairly accurate table so far:

1st Yatta 848 (8th)
2nd SW19 Revisited 836 (13th)
3rd yorkshire dragons 817 (31st)
4th Winton Wanderers 813 (33rd)
5th workies raqueteurs 802 (41st)
6th Pointless Pigeons 784
7th Equipe Chat's Noir 761
8th Forever England 759
9th Good for one set 758
10th murf's mob 755 (119th)
11th Better than the French? 719
12th Forever Changes 708
13th Match Point 694
14th Don't kick the line judge 671
15th Wooden spoon +1 663
16th Let's see how this does 656
= Pants 656
18th Cheap Seats 641
19th A.M. Postal Service 627
20th Afraid of Virginia Wade 577
21st Bloodaxe United 533 (625th of 631)

We must be pretty good generally as I am mid-table (10th of 21) yet I'm up in 119th overall of 631

Nadal has doomed me - thought I was Ok in the mens (51st) but I've only got 3 through (and one to play). Still got 5 women but I'm down in the 300s there :?

My best buys are a pair of cheapoes - qualifier Brian Baker (who has 67 pts so far) and wildcard Ms Shvedova (52)

Utterly brilliant. And I spent the total budget. It wasn't like I picked the 10 cheapest players in each section. :lol: :lol:

Almost achieved perfection. Just another 6 places to drop. I suppose if I was to do it properly, I should be coming bottom of the men's & women's rather than just overall.

Memo to self : Must try harder next time.

There is hope. The guy in 631st (and last) still has 6 people left. If they all do well, he could move above me, which would push me nearer last place.

Come on !!

Down to 626th :D . The 5 people below me have all got at least 4 players left, and I had a bad day staying on 3. Thing is, without checking everyone's entry, it looks like everyone has used all their money. I suppose it would be against the spirit of the game to just pick the 20 cheapest players and expect to come last.

I can still do this. :lol:

Fri-Sat, Days 5-6 of 13

The Third Round has now been completed in both Singles' tournaments, ie, 16 are left in each draw.

At the end of the first week the forum's leading three teams are also in the overall top ten.

This trio's average of 1,145 would put Fiso clear by 60+ overall in the mini-league race if it weren't being dragged back by the rest of us (the bottom two-thirds in particular)...

Should have got bonus points for Shvedova's golden set. That was quite some achievement for a wildcard entry against a top 10 seed.

Well I'm 49 points adrift at the bottom of the league. However I can't come last in both the men's & women's :cry: . There are people below me with less/same entries left.

However I hereby claim this as the ultimate fantasy entry - to come so far last while actually trying to win. :lol:
