The final Grand Slam of the year, follows the Australian, French and Wimbledon Prediction Games (details can be seen here, here) and here).

When the US Open is underway and reaches the Third Round stage (final 64 players 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.

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.

Defending Champs:

Mollie & Lee
