Pick 'em quote of the year, from T4Y and an object lesson in why making late changes to your picks can end up with you kicking yourself very hard ...

Oh crap, I may have mucked it all up today! May as well just tell you, I have Nalbandian getting to the final, beating Del Potro, Murray and Nadal and Tsonga beating Djokovic.

Yeah, I just re-did my picks, but I'll be so annoyed if my old picks would have got me more points.

I checked and we've still got his original entry (the one he 'overwrote' with a new entry with the big 4 all in the semis - Grundon was conscientious enough to save the originals too) - he would have finished 14th instead of 36th and his team (yes the people he changed his picks for so they wouldn't shoot him for being so silly!) and T4Y would have held off RG,net and won the Paris team title.

Had he gone even further with his Tsonga picks (he had him going out the round after beating Nole and Fed beating Numpty in the Final) who knows how high he could have ended up ...
