Slight problem guys - I'm going away tomorrow until Saturday morning, so won't be able to do stuff before then. So not quite sure how to do the semi finals :s and final :s x 100.

Err, maybe one of you guys could just post a copy of the draws for semi's etc and I'll sort out scoring when I get back?

Roger Federer (Swi) (1)
Radek Stepanek (Cze) (14)
Lleyton Hewitt (Aus) (6)

I hate Nadal. Again.

My Semi final predictions:

Federer
Hewitt


Final prediction:

Federer

I can put the draw up for everyone.

Thanks GP.

If for some reason Federer loses, I think Ancic will make final.

I can't be bothered to go through each scenario actually. I'll just accept I'm out of the race to win this thing. :'(

Thanks GP :D

Sorry you couldnt finish it Jamie, is it a holiday you're going away for? Well have a good time anyway and thank you for setting this up for us :)
