This is awkward! I agree with Arnie regarding the prestigious and historical supremacy of the Guru win:- it requires team picking skill AND match prediction skill AND an informed knowledge of the potential of lower ranked players as well as measured risk taking. It also embraces 4 of these challenging 2 week tests. For that reason, had Marco also played TDC throughout the year, we might not be having this discussion. As a relative newcomer myself this vote for Marco reflects my grasp of the consensus in the group about the relative weight of the different competitions. I do acknowledge though that Murree has had a superb first full year on TDC and I am in awe of his Vader win and had Marco not participated then Murree would be the unquestionable choice.
So, no, it’s not about personalities but it does raise questions re the level of participation needed to qualify for the award and about the extent of the consensus regarding  the relative weight of Guru v other achievements.
Hats off to both!!

Also worth mentioning that tenedab was the overall winner of WTA teams on TDC and Edu was the overall winner of WTA brackets on TDC, so it wasn't just us they beat, they beat everybody!

That is truely impressive. I wonder if success against the entire field could be an added feature of POTY....

Hooray! Boy, that was close, Edu was one win away. Maybe he'll get a consolation or two this season?

Congrats TE especially as Edu seems to have plenty to look forward to!

Nice Murree

Man, my Vader season is pretty laughable now, so close to picking Basilashvili but went for Coric instead, who lost R1, and has now just knocked out my Shanghai pick Stan in R1.
I'm tempted to do an Andy Murray and shut my season down at this point.

Yes, Murree is the star of this show!,

Shutting down your season might help me to achieve a slightly more respectable overall score in Vader TE!! I’m very grateful to Aiur for missing the last couple of weeks!

There are three WDs in Hong Kong, so they shuffled the draw. Good luck fixing it!

Sounds complex! Will contact the ‘crew’

The thing Is, we all have random picks and most are a shot in the dark, but TD's 'random picks' have a more strategic touch. .....Actually Spotec seemed to have the same 'affliction for a while last year!! .....
