Re: 2025 US Open contest

Medvedev and Keys were our biggest losers, so no points for either of us.

Currently, you are in the lead with 9 correct quarter finalists to my 7.  We were pretty good for the men, with only FAA and Lehecka not picked.  For the women, however, we weren't as good, missing Vondrousova, Krejcikova, Muchova, Osaka, and Anisimova.

I also have to say that Osaka's deconstruction of Gauff was a bit painful to watch.  Gauff was made to feel uncomfortable, and she was never able to get anything going.
