Predictions Week of 2/27

[3mlm]

Five tournaments this week: Doha and Acapulco for the WTA; Dubai, Las Vegas and Acapulco for the ATP.

I don't know the schedules yet so assume predictions are due before the start of play on Wednesday unless we find out otherwise.

Gotta get these in quick - leaving town on business shortly.

I'm assuming Schruff is a freebie - was gonna pick her anyway.

A big thanks to Karlos for posting updated draws.

Just trying to do my part, 3m! If each of us do a little, it means one of us doesn't have to do a lot.

I'm usually good for getting European and Pan-Asian draws up, as they work well with the times that I am on a computer. It's North/South American tourneys that I have difficulty helping, since they tend to play later in the day, at least for an East Coaster like myself.

Let me be sure I understand this correctly...

Smashova RETIRED against Ani up 4-2 in the third due to "heat-related illness."

Is she TRYING to join my Rika Fujiwara list?

That, or she had to go meet her surfer-dude boyfriend at the beach... Btw Rika is 0 for 3 this year.

Neka, never, EVUH! count out that demon Rika Fujiwara. She nailed me in the Indian Wells suicide pool last year when I picked Schiavone to beat her. Ever since, she's been on my bad side. I cringe whenever I see her name in a draw.

It's been kind of a running joke on this board ever since.
