Australian Open

First, I'm pushing the deadline back to Tuesday at midnight. That means that most players will have played one match so you might want to follow your picks keeping in mind that you can make a change at the last minute in you need to.

Second, here is the newest version of scoring for tennis tournaments:

Give me the four semi-finalists and who will beat who in the final for both the men's and women's draws.
Example pick: Semi-finalists: Kubat, Marty, Bandit and Princess G. Bandit over Marty in finals.

Scoring:
1 point for each semi-finalist, 2 points for each finalist, 5 points for champion.

You have potential for 13 points per tournament here.

I'm linking to the draws for both men and women. Make sure that you pick players from each of the four sections of the tournament. In the past, I have gotten predictions for finals that were impossible and have sent people mail to give them a chance to fix it. You gotta figure it out on your own this year.
