Day 7 and the end of week 1 did not disappoint. Many great matches were played today and many picks were lost today. The main pick that lost today was the third seeded Thiem who struggled today physically and was beaten by Dimitrov. Serena Williams managed to defeat higher seeded Sabalenka in three sets and Osaka managing to scrape past Muguruza also in three sets.

Entering the latter part of the tournament, the difference between coming first and finishing 5th could depend on which picks manage to win the Australian Open. Just a reminder that there is a bonus 10 points for your pick winning the grand slam. The gap at the top closed by a long way as our leader didn’t manage to score any points today. Could the tide be changing… Here is the leaderboard after 7 days of tennis.
