How many British main draw wins will we get at Wimbledon 2026?

SuperT · Futures level

We hit our average at the FO so I'm going to assume we might do the same here, which Jon advised was 36.

I'll go for 33

And I was going to keep it anonymous - I'm with Elegant Point - it's the rebellious side

BUT Jon saved my life by posting about the District line so he's in my good books - hence, all transparency - 33 it is

tee hee smile

Red Pencil vs. Blue Pencil
Understanding the red pencil rule usually involves contrasting it with other common judicial responses to defective contracts : [1, 2]
Red Pencil Doctrine: The court voids the entire clause. The judge cannot modify or fix the wording to make it legal. [1, 2, 3]
Blue Pencil Doctrine: The court crosses out ("strikes") only the offending words, leaving the rest of the contract intact and enforceable.
