Congrats to anyone who picked Robin Soderling, to finish in the top 10. That was the one that surprised me the most. Back in January, I never would have expected him to qualify for the World Tour Finals.

True JoshDragon – congrats to all the winners!! Anthony – you’re very prescient; can you tell me how many slams Murray and Djoko will win please? : )

I remember this contest – what a crazy year! at the beginning of the year, who would have thought that Rafa would win the AO, Fed the FO & Delpo the USO? Kudos to the top 12.

Going back and reading some of these predictions are – well – funny! Some folks said Roger would finish the year at #5; Some said Nadal would win (again) French and Wimbledon; etc. Just goes to show anything can happen in any year. Will be interesting to see the predictions for 2010.

what about props for this guy who also got 4 ranking spots right – Fed, JMDP, Davy and Roddick.

peter Says:

1. Roger Federer. He’s not done yet will win french
2. Andy Murray. Really fit, could challenge Fed
3. Rafael Nadal. His body will cost him
4. Novak Djokovic. Big 3 too tough for Novak
5. Juan Martin Del Potro. He will be a star
6. Nickolay davydenko. can’t win majors
7. Andy Roddick. His big serve will keep him in the top 10.
8. James Blake. could go ahead of Roddick
9. David ferrer. can’t win on grass or hard.
10. gilles simon. he’s no fluke.

Wait, there’s another “Mike”. Well I’ll be a monkey’s uncle. And I always thought my name was so unique!

(For the record, had I played this game, I’d surely have gotten 9 out of the 10. A pick for Volkov to come out of retirement and finish the year #3 would’ve cost me a shot at perfection, though.)

The International Olympic Committee has added mixed doubles to the Olympics in 2012.

Nole and JJ?

Happy holidays to all the bloggers.

I’m excited about 2010.

Should be a smashing good year!

Congrats to the anthony, a deserving winner.

But I had three in their correct positions – Federer, Djokovic and del Potro – and got no credit for it at the top.

This reminds me of most of the early X-board contests, when I was overwhelmingly in first before losing repeatedly at the last minute. If Davydenko had not reached the final, I would have pegged him and Roddick and had five exactly right. If Djokovic had won the tournament instead of Davydenko (they both went 2-1 in their group and the Djoker beat Davydenko), I would have gotten the top seven exactly right.

Sucks for me.

It also sucks that you can’t edit posts on the outer board.

The Anthony? I meant Anthony.
