2025 Australian Open

1. Pick quarterfinalists, semifinalists and champions for both ATP and WTA draws. You will receive 7.5 points for each correct quarterfinalist, 5 points for each correct semifinalist and 20 points for each correct champion. 

2. SUBSTITUTE PICK: Pick a player from each draw to replace one of your quarterfinalists. If this player makes the quarters, they will take the place of whomever you picked in that section of the draw. 

3: BIGGEST LOSER: Pick the highest seed that will lose in the earliest round from each draw. The player must be a top 16 seed. You will get 5 points if your seed is the highest to lose and 2 points if your seed falls in the same round as the highest seed to lose. 

Picks must be posted before the start of play or soon afterward or at least before the trophy presentations at the end of the tournament.

Re: 2025 Australian Open

Thanks for getting it up!

Auger-Aliassime v. Zverev

Semifinals

Sinner v. Medvedev
Alcaraz v. Zverev

Women

Quarterfinals

Sabalenka v. Q. Zheng
Gauff v. Pegula
Rybakina (Collins) v. Boulter
Kastakina v. Swiatek

Semifinals

Sabalenka v. Gauff
Rybakina v. Swiatek

Final

Sabalenka d. Rybakina in 3

BL: Gauff (Kenin on this court with memories could pull an upset)

I'm thinking that Boulter being DeMinaur's fiancee will give her adopted Aussie status and be good for getting the crowd to pull her a round or two beyond where she'd normally be.

I think I'm giving too much weight to the first week of results by picking FAA to make the quarters, but you're picking Keys to make the final.  We'll probably both be disappointed there!

I wanted to pick DeMinaur, but I could not see him making his way out of a group that included Tsitsipas and Khachanov.
