Isner-Mahut first round again. Classic!

[MARMELADINA]

Roger and Rafa on opposite halves (Rafa has Murray, Roger has Djokovic).

Rafa potentially has Raonic and Delpo (3rd round and R. of 16) - could be interesting!

Isner-Mahut first round again. Classic!

What were the chances?

[KimLinbert]

What were the chances?

127-1, I think.

[new-nickname-zanovo]

They'll have to put them on Court 18... right?

[Angeheade]

Something's a wee bit fishy on the Isner-Mahut front...

Chances of Delpo actually making the R16: about 1%.

OMG, I missed Isner-Mahut on the first look. I hope they get Lahyani to umpire. But putting it on Ct 18 would be just super cruel.

Go big or go home! I'm all for it being totally deja-vu!

[Vomephems]

127-1, I think.

Probably even less then that...since we know that no seeded players will play each other it's a bit less likely if you are an unseeded player to face another unseeded player. (I think)

[Zugaxxsn]

Okay, so I'm probably off somewhere, but these are my thoughts on the I/M probability...

We know that the draw is 128, but since both are unseeded, we know there are 32 places where they won't be, leaving 96.

Now, I'm sure the probability would shift depending on when they were placed, but let's say Isner was the first person they placed. There are 96 vacant spots, but 32 of them yield seeds, which will prohibit the matchup. With my very rudimentary probability skills, I would say that Isner has a 2 in 3 chance of nabbing one of the unseeded/unseeded matchups.

Then, let's say Mahut was the next to be drawn. He would now need to be placed in the only spot that yields Isner as a first-round opponent, so he has a 1 in 95 chance of getting that spot.

If you multiply the two probabilities together, you get 2 in 290, or 1 in 145 odds that the matchup happens.

Note: I am not a math person, and I'm sure there are other variables that I'm not taking into consideration, but this might just be one way to look at it.

Sorry to have bored you.

[Vomephems]

Bored me? You just proved my theory right that it was slightly less likely by doing the math I was too lazy to do

[O25YtQnn]

What were the chances?

127-1, I think.

::

So Andy and Roger will meet again in the final, at which time Roger will beat Andy in another extended 5th set tiebreak. That will send me into a chain-smoking, Rockstar-drinking, chocolate-eating FRENZY OF MAD PROPORTIONS!!!



(and..... breathe.)

[quottrethew]

A lot way to look at it, here another one

[Vomephems]

So it's 1 in the 140's at least

[electmobile]

I don't care what people say! Revenge of the Nerds was one of the bestest films ever!

[O25YtQnn]

Ha! Good one!

[Angeheade]

The probability that Isner and Mahut would draw each other again in this year's Wimbledon first round -- given that they were both unseeded -- was 0.7 percent, which is 7 in 1,000 or about 1 in 143, according to ESPN Stats & Information. Article here

[quottrethew]

No consensus on the number....
