Predict the Next 10 slam winners
2018 - Australian Open - French Open - Wimbledon - US Open
2019 - Australian Open - French Open - Wimbledon - US Open
2020 - Australian Open - French Open
As the likeliness of individual players winning Grand Slams varies (as projected at this current point in time), the points accrued by selecting a player will differ based on certain factors such as…ability - age - headspace - injury record - potential - previous slam history. How players chances of winning slams by the end of FO:2020 are perceived is subjective, however I have separated them into the following points tiers given the criteria set above.
Tie breakers: if level on points
i) Winner will be the entry who has selected the most amount of individual slam winners (My example selection has 7 different players)
ii) If this is still equal, winner will be the entry who has selected a new slam winner or the highest number of new slam winners.
iii) If tied entrants are still level, then tied positions place is shared
Example Selection
Muguruza x 3
Serena x2
Sharapovax 1
Konta x 1
Keys x 1
Halep x1
Svitolina x1
=10
Spoiler: Show

Notable absentees - Postpregnancy players not called Clijsters, Keys (post-final press conference had too much 'oh well i lost and what's for tea' and zilch conviction/fire), Anti-tennis pushers (their ships have sailed thank f), the eternal S.Hapless, and any current top 10 non Spanish player whose surname ends with 'a'

10 wasn't in reference to the points, it was just totalling up number of picks to emphasise how I wanted people to post their selections/make sure they list 10, same as ATP thread, though in hindsight I see the confusion.
But yes, total points here would be 10.75 points, ATP 11.25 points.
But yes, total points here would be 10.75 points, ATP 11.25 points.
ttt for any early entries, I will post mine in January.
mes, can I send my entries via pm so others don't steal my picks?
Kerber, Svitolina, Wozniacki, Muguruza, Sharapova, Bencic, Halep, Coco, Ostapenko, Karolina Pliskova.
3 Muguruza, 2 Serena, 1 Venus, 1 Wozniacki, 1 Kvitova, 1 Vanderweghe, 1 Azarenka
If I would have seen your post earlier Caramba, I would of said Yes.
I've consulted my crystal ball, indulged in some Tasseography, read a few tarot cards and had a top level meeting with Mystic Meg, and can now reveal the winners of the next 10 Grand Slams.....
S Williams x 2
Muguruza x 2

Bencic had been away with the fairies for 2 years and was ranked somewhere in the 300's. Thought of her winning 1 of the next 10 slams at that point looked remote. Still does tbh, no consistency.
which one of you has been clicking on this thread 6000 times
I know it started a while ago but Barty not even listed.
So players winning Slams for this were:
Wozniacki 1,25 pts
Halep 1 pt (won 2 in this span)
Kerber 1,25 pts
Osaka 1.75 pts (won 2 in this span)
Barty 2 pts (unlisted)
Andreescu 2 pts (unlisted)
Kenin 2 pts (unlisted)
Swiatek 2 pts (unlisted)
I'll give mes a week or so to tally up the score if he wants too, if not I can do it.
