For some strange reason, I picked Krejcikova to defeat Golubic, who hadn't won a main draw match in months. My stupidity earned me a trip here on the first day of the tournament.

I would have made that pick too, if I had not been so dead already.

Lost to a WC and a Q. If I had not worked those numbers a long time ago, I would say to never go against them...
I'm in the Schnaider section, too. Never pick a player in a bandanna, I guess. Double-cheeked on Day 2 with Norrie. What's worse is that I don't even care. I'm Krygios now. A Moscow mule and a cold cider, please.

ouch. just checked results. survived my rain delayed day 4 pick, but my day 5 pick, Khachanov dumped 11 of us.

so on the one hand, I need a drink for misery.

on the other hand, I need a celebratory drink that finally the big orange one is convicted of something.

If our numbers are correct, Samsonova just drove 20 out of 37 people over a cliff and into the fires of 'ell. 60% of the pool.
And no, oui will NOT be serving more Moscow Mules! We will prepare a delicious cocktail for all these poor people. With vodka.

Edit: and it is a Friday, Bloody Russian Friday, with Rublev also going down and taking 13 souls with him.

I guess I'll have to go with a White Russian thanks to Samsonova - and, no, I'm not being racist.

And it does have vodka in it, Ponchi :D
It seems like time is going backwards towards 1984 . . . :freaking:
