Jannik Sinner

Day 12 pick if needed: Sinner

Through to day 12 - In the red corner we have SamuelMertensBertens who grabbed four of the eight available titles last season and who will be eager to continue their excellent form from last season. Despite being the second winningest contestant of the competition's history, a men's title at the Australian Open has however eluded him to this very day. Much unlike what has been the case for the fighter in the blue corner - Anubis8. Intially saved by the rain on day 1, he is looking to  reclaim the title that was already his just a mere two years ago. With a title this year Anubis8 will be able to keep pace with wisewords for 4th winningest contestant and at the same time break the tie with Journeyman and everyone's most lovable host to claim sole possession of being the 5th winningest player in history.

Let's get ready to ruuumble!

Anubis8 - Nishioka, Korda, Kecmanovic, Fils, Shelton, Lehecka, de Minaur, Paul, Sonego, Zverev, Sinner
SamuelMertensBertens - Nishioka, Draper, Tien, Humbert, Michelsen, Paul, de Minaur, Djokovic, Sonego, Zverev, Shelton

Freshly Out:

Shelton def. GRANTCKING

Sorry, I am a bit late.

Djokovic's thigh ruined Anubis8's plans to reclaim the throne, whereas Sinner ground down Ben Shelton and allowed SamuelMertensBertens to get his first ever victory in the AO men's.

Congratulations!

woohoo! Thanks for running and bring on Roland Garros!
