some interesting picks from other people, first 2 rounds will be a real hit and miss, i really think safin is gonna go out in the first round, but i just couldnt bring myself to back against him, Monfils is the world number 1 junior and looks very impressive, i expect him to beat Ginepri, it seems most people disagree...

So its 1 point for round 1, 2 for rounds 2, 4 for round 3 etc?

yeh i think thats a good idea, we can have a daily winner as well as an overall winner...
