I'm in fairly frequent email contact with Bob, one of our former regular
posters. I mentioned the contest and he'd like to enter as the recipient
of a sort of master's draw.

Bob:

Alcaraz/Sinner
Sabalenka/Rybakina

He asked me to ask TT & Pelle if they intend to watch the US
presidential inauguration on 20 Jan., MLK Jr. Day.

Bob got too tired of getting his ass kicked up and down the hall
in this place, now has to send his underling to submit his entry?
lol, what a fucking coward.

Hahaha... Probably not... but tell him I kinda like the Orange Genius
nowadays more than Sleepy Joe. Unless he fucks up my portfolio with his
tariffs. And tell Bob to drop by sometime at RST...

Wow. bob is posting into RST via the sneaker network. No, I'm not
watching anything. If I later run into juicy bits in some suitably
slanted outlet, I might post those here so bob can read them.

My guesses are:
Carlos Alcaraz over Daniil Medvedev
Aryna Sabalenka over Elena Rybakina

Thanks MJ!

Can understand why Oz Open and Roland Garros do it, but it does mess
everyone up...
What else would people be doing on a sunday ? It's a perfect day to sit
on the sofa and watch some sport.
