Sounds good

I have a view of starting this for the Australian Open now. Instead of making this a weekly comp, I think it might be better to make this a monthly/or a series of tournaments rather than just a week in and week out thing. So instead of selecting for one, we'll select for 3 or 4. I'll get a thread up in the next couple of days.

I reckon we just go for grand slams and 1000s - easier to keep track of and it'll probably attract more interest as a lot of people only pay attention to the bigger tournaments.

Yeah, I was planning to do it in blocks of tourneys. So after the Australian open, was going to group all of Feb tournys together and then Indian Wells and Miami together. Going to be more of a fantasy style by picking a few different players instead of one.

Anything to try and keep the discussion going during the quiet times helps.

Fantasy style would be pretty cool. Perhaps select two top ten players and three other players per 'block' for both men's and women's tournaments (ie. ten players per 'block') then score based on the amount of points they earned at the tournament? Means that we don't really have to wait for draws to come out, stops people from picking the top five players every month and also ensures that there'll be some variation in the players selected.
