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!
Be interesting to see how competitive De Minaur and Ostapenko are going forward, similarly say Andreeva and Medvedev from Group N, with really not having to get out of second gear to see off their first group opposition.
Group P is the last group to finish tonight at 17:18, Group A starts the closing at 16:52 and I will call the result in each as they close, or 1 minute after to be safe.
