Vondrousova, first champion to be beaten in the 1st round since... Steffi Graf 30 years ago!

It's a rarity at Wimbledon for the title holder to be beaten in the first round. Before Marketa Vondrousova, last year's surprise winner who was beaten in the 1st round of this 2024 edition by Spain's Jessica Bouzas Maneiro, you had to go back 30 years to find such a scenario. In 1994, Steffi Graf, then world no. 1 and three-time title-holder on the grass of the All England Club, was beaten in the first round by American Lori McNeil.

McNeil went on to reach the semi-finals in 1994. Enough to give Bouzas Maneiro some good ideas?

I propose the following changes to the rules:

1...a walķover will not be a loss. We have no control of player's health. If he or she is entered in a contest we expect them to play.

2...an incomplete match is not a loss. If a player forfeits we pick another match if there are more to choose.

3...this also applies if TT cancels a match. TT will not take hours to decide an outcome.

How about leavin...

It's a shame that so many matches are being canceled. TT ,you are destroying your game ,and thereby killing your app. I don't know how many matches others have had canceled , but I'm at 3 and it's only thursday.

As a long time player and lover of this game , I don't know how much of this I can tolerate. For example I waited hours last night for you to confirm my win and post my points. Every ot...

This week I have used all my formulas and best guesses to try to achieve the high score jimandlori958 set in our last competition. I am two games short because of cancelations and I need all wins to get there.

why did tennis tonic void predictions on the match between Grenier and Hsu at the Kobe tournament? The match was played to completion and on time.

An impressive win.. Congrats to our winner this week, jimandlori958 and with a score that could not be caught or matched. I don't remember a 56 in a while with our group. Nice to see everyone using the 2 point predictions. Can't win without 'em.
