Favourite International Player Vote - Group B


So recently, I ran a favourite British player vote, which Jake Fearnley won.

In Covid times, I ran lots of polls and one of them was to find the favourite International player - for the life of me I cant find who won it! But a lot has changed since then with the Big 3 and Serena all retiring. 

 

So, I thought I would give it another go and see what the current board members think our favourite overall international player is!

128 players - 64 men and 64 women (NO BRITS!). Top 56 singles players in each of the men and women, top 8 doubles players in each. 

16 groups of 8 - the top 2 will get through from each group. If there is a tie, there will be a vote off.

From the second round of 32, 4 groups of 8 will be formed and 8 will proceed to a final.

This first vote will run 2 days as there are a lot of groups and will close at 5PM on Wednesday. That will allow the ties to have play off votes that evening.

Semis will run Thursday morning to Friday night; final will run Sat morning to Sunday night 

Each group as 4 men and 4 women, Organised based on rankings. I simply went through the list and allocated, so no favouritism, but the top players are kept apart. Each group has 7 singles players and 1 of the doubles players

Enjoy and if you vote, say who you vote for to allow the voting to keep alive and active!  

This is about your favourite and not who is best - but let us know who is your favourite international player!

VOTE WILL CLOSE AT 16:54 WEDNESDAY

Sabalenka has really grown on me. Her battles, often with herself, are a good watch on court and she is good to listen to off it. She gets my vote.

A tie at the top in this group - although a long way to go, if there is a tie at the top, I will do a simple coin toss to decide which second round group each player goes into. Simple as that

Sabalenka and Tiafoe are tied again at the top here but well ahead of third place

This group B is over and Sabalenka and Tiafoe tie for top place.

I will toss a coin a bit later to determine which player gets spot B1 and which gets B2 in the next round

So the toss up for top spot:

Sabalenka is heads

Tiafoe is tails

And it is heads so Sabalenka takes the top spot for the next round

With only 2 going through to the final out of 8, that could be a very important toss to determine seeding. Anyway we'll see how things pan out.
