Just to clarify, matches today start at 4pm not the 3pm I'd stated previously

I'm worried that no one else has the same picks as me

I'm not that clever, so could easily be dropping out this round

Sorry, wasn't expecting so many people to miss the deadline

I think I'll give everyone one chance next time, with the timing of the US Open it can be pretty awkward to predict in time each day.

Can't believe you're through to round 3 already before I've even made it through round 1

Pospisil breaks back in the 5th set, a lot of us very precariously placed here...

Between those of us who went for Pospisil for day 1 we went for 4 different players on day 2, they are all through already while Pospisil is still battling it out in his match

I did no research at all in the Oz open and ended 2nd and 3rd in both games and lasted until the both finals.

Missed the French but in Wimbledon and the US, where I had my tactics clear, I've won one match. Out of Wimbledon on day 1 and day 2. Out of this with my first man and first woman.

Finally we have the results of the first two days of the ATP competition.

We lost an incredible 14 entrants players on the opening day of matches, 12 of those caused by just two players; Ernests Gulbis and Vasek Pospisil.

Vasek Posipisil squandered SEVEN match points against Rogerio Dutra da Silva in a marathon match, losing 12-10 in a fifth set tiebreak. Magpie, dtcdtctdtc, Cissy Fairfax, ellie, fab cesc, EPY, davethecue and Nathers all go crashing out of the contest. (Thanks, Vasek )

Ernests Gulbis' s five set defeat to Andreas Haider-Maurer means that big bro geek, abby, ashtray and yakutz exit the competition.

Cuishla and seansnotmyname also went out after victories for Frank Dancevic and GB's Dan Evans over Robin Haase and Kei Nishikori, respectively.

On day 2 of the competition, we only lost two competitors. The first casualty was MinkyJoe, as Jerzy Janowicz surprisingly lost to Maximo Gonzalez in straight sets. The other was javjamoll, as Horacio Zeballos was beaten by Adrian Mannarino in four sets.

Only 8 people have made it through to day 3!
