Im going to need Dementieva to upset S Williams tomorrow or Venus and Murray to win the titles in order to pinch 2nd and get that £150 womens clothes - wouldnt the missus be pleased
Certainly adds an edge to the matches - especially the womens which i normally wouldnt give a toss about!
M'ON DEMENTIEVAAAAA!!!

Re: Wimbledon Dream Team 2009
Got all 6 of the remaining people in the tournament left
Unfortunately, dismal showing from my ladies' selections, and a wasted selection on Safin, have left me too far behind.

Re: Wimbledon Dream Team 2009
I was well out with that prediction, the winner amassed 1925 points! I guess Nadal's absence made the mens slightly unbalanced but still some huge scores. As a comparison, the French Open was won with less than 1600 & last years FISO league with 1421bagpuss wrote:1600-1700 will probably be needed to win it, so a PPM from the men of about 18, and roughly 15 for the women.Shaggy365 wrote: Neither myself nor the person who's top has any of the big players. It just remains to be seen if this tactic of picking mid-table players is better than picking top ranked + cheapies to balance it all out.

Re: Wimbledon Dream Team 2009
Very pleased to have finished 2nd in the Fiso League and Top 25 overall
Got the last 6 out of 8 players (plus both winners ) but leaving out JC Ferrero was a big mistake......
