Default The French Open 2013 Prediction Game


The second Grand Slam of the year, follows the Australian Open Prediction Game (details can be seen here).

Basically, when The French Open 2013 gets going and reached to the third round stage (final 64 people in each draw), I will allow you guys to predict the winner in each match, until the very end.

This is how it will work.. when it comes to the final 64 players in both the men's and women's draw all you'll have to do is predict the winner from each match and the number of sets it'll take for that player to win.

e.g. this is how the draw will look like....
Spoiler:

Player v. Player - Player wins in 2 sets
Player v. Player - Player wins in 2 sets
Player v. Player - Player wins in 3 sets
Player v. Player - Player wins in 2 sets
- - - - - - - - - - - - -
Player v. Player... etc
Player v. Player... etc
Player v. Player... etc
Player v. Player... etc

Player v. Player... etc
Player v. Player... etc
- - - - - - - - - - - - -
Player v. Player... etc
Player v. Player... etc
Player v. Player... etc
Player v. Player... etc
The Scoring:

2 pts - For every correctly identified winner in each match
5 pts - For every correctly identified winner in each match AND correct number of sets in match
Bonus 10 pts (each) - Predicting the winner (male and female) before this Prediction Game gets underway.

Women's Draw winner wins this award:
Male's Draw winner wins this award:

I'll keep tally for both during the game.

N/B: TO ENSURE YOU GET THE BEST CHANCE OF EARNING POINTS, IT'LL BE WISE TO SUBMIT YOUR PREDICTIONS THE NIGHT BEFORE PLAY.

Because say with the womens game, if you get the right winner there's only gonna ever be one set between getting 2 points or getting the full 5, so it seems a bit too big of a leap. Bit different in the football one, because you could get the right winner but the score could be literally anything
