My WTA Wimbledon 2016 - 4th Round Picks



1 S.Williams v. H. Watson, if Heather Watson progresses after facing a tough 1st Round match-up against Annika Beck and potential 2nd Round against 31 Kristina Mladenovic.



13 S. Kuznetsova v. 18 S. Stephens, if Svetlana Kuznetsova gets by Caroline Wozniacki. It's hard to pick Sloane in this potential match-up, not knowing whether she'll be tuned in.


27 C. Vandeweghe has been playing well and this a great opportunity for her. On the other side of the ledger, Alison Riske or 6 Roberta Vinci are the potential opponents.

-- BPM Drafted Rank  --  Ranking of the NCAA players drafted who met the Minutes Played requirement.
-- Actual to BPM -- Differential of the two measures.

EvenMoney’s 2016 NBA Draft Big Board

We have gone away from our past ways of doing the NBA Draft Big Board by selecting the Top 60 players using our model and its 4 metrics.

Our Big Board does not account for players who did not play 450 minutes or more at a NCAA college this past season. We have separated players based on Class Year, and factored in their class year and the final RPI Rankings into their final BPM (Ball Player Money) Value.

WTA French Open 2016 Finals Wrap-up




Coming in as the fourth seed and playing great tennis, I picked Garbine Muguruza to face Serena Williams, the number one seed, in the Finals of the WTA French Open 2016. Though I am high on her potential, I did not have her winning this match. But, she did it, and earned it with her customary baseline to baseline prowess.
