Title: Wimbledon MINI-PREDICTIONS - RESULTS!
MrInvisible - July 9, 2007 10:45 AM (GMT)
Here are the results everyone. This has to be the lowest scoring contest ever...No-one saw Bartoli, and only SB spotted Venus getting to semi-finals, whilst Jankovic, Sharapova and Mauresmo cost their backers dear. The mens' side wasn't as spectacularly low, with some good predictions on quarter-finals (a few spotted Baghdatis doing well, and I correctly predicted Ferrero!). But no-one had any faith in Nadal to reach the final!
So, our overall winner is Liam Valid - well done lad! Wooden spoon to Wise Analyst, who, unlike his idol Nadal, has made a poor adjustment to grass after a stellar performance at Roland Garros!

Hmm, did all right on the men but rubbish in the women!
Thanks for organising MrI - good fun and some of the predictions make quite funny reading with hindsight :)

Thanks Mr I! Good fun :clap: I suppose I did OK with the women's. Shame my faith in Venus wasn't backed all the way to the finals, and that I never bet on it either! :D
Congrats Liam, the winner :bow:

A controversial Hawkeye challenge from Vivahate...which has paid off, as Viva did indeed get 45 points in the womens' contest, and therefore wins both the womens' contest and the overall contest, deposing Liam Valid by 5 points!
