OVERALL STANDINGS - AS OF GW35

As Game Week 35 ended you could hear a massive thud, as Aoun emphatically officially closed the door on his competition for the season.  

 

GW35 was one of the most frustrating weeks of the season, as every time you looked at the Entry List for both events, the list of players that had withdrawn grew.  By the time the dust settled, most managers were left holding the bag without a single player to put into their lineup.  Sadly in the last couple of weeks of the season, trades are scarce, so it makes it even more awkward and frustrating.

 

Even tho Aoun (Fedex Superstars) didn't have a single player to put into his lineup before he made his trades, his lead nearly doubled as his lead jumped from 130 points to 258.  Aoun was able to use 3 trades and finished 13th in GW35.  He finished with both winners - talk about some incredible bang for your buck.

Tricia (Prepare for CzechMate) jumped up one spot this week and now sits in 2nd place thanks to a 10th place finish.  Sadly, she's 258 points behind our leader.  She had a chance to gain some significant ground this week, but Alex De Minaur withdrew after the 2nd round started, and Bublik lost in a 3rd set tiebreak in his first match of the week.  She traded in both winners as well!

 

Sadly, Samir (Mirzini Sinovi) who has been fighting a losing battle with trades as the season has been coming to a close, dropped a spot and now sits in 3rd thanks to a never ending nightmare that was GW35.  He was only able to spare 1 trade for the week, and after De Minaur withdrew, he was left with 1 player for the week and amassed 30 points. As a result, he dropped 170 points to our leader, and to Tricia who jumped ahead of him in the process.  He's now 307 points behind, and in danger of finishing outside the top 3 as a result. 

 

Dragan (Nadal's Forehand) continues to sit in 4th, but thanks to his 2nd GW victory of the season, there is a real possibility that he could finish in 2nd once the dust settles.  He gained 230 points on Samir and 60 on Tricia, so as a result, he's now only 4 points behind Samir and a little over 50 behind Tricia.
