I got 42, missed a bunch of the Spaniards and Frenchies. Too many from one country and they're lost on me.

I missed Schuettler, Chardy, Soderling, Vassallo Arguello, and, sadly, Moya

I also almost completely blanked on Monfils' existence, but remembered at the end

I only got 30. Couldn't come up with Fish as the 3rd ranked American. But I should have had 32. I entered Nieminan and Bolelli and they didn't record for me. Apparently misspelled, but it should have been close enough. (they're probably misspelled here too.) And I didn't realize Santoro was still in the top 50. Oh well.

Such a bad test taker...I panicked and scored 32! Including forgetting two members of my TSIP team!

Side note: the highest-ranked player I missed was Ferrer (yikes!). Who was yours? (for those who haven't already posted whom they missed)

I got a 29. Some of my favorite misses were Monfils, Robredo and Stepanek. And yet Kunistyn rolled off the tongue.

Fun game! I wish there was no timer so I could see in general how many of those names were stuck in my head.

Fun quiz!

I got 38. I feel like I should have gotten 4 or 5 more (but I'm sleepy!).

I got the entire top 25. I think I missed 3 in the 25-30 range. Two of them were Kiefer and Schuettler.

I scored 36. The highest ranked player I missed was Tursunov. I'm really surprised that Santoro, Kiefer, and Kunitsyn (and a few others) are in the top 50. I totally blanked on the Argentines and Italians.

35

But I blame it less on my lack of tennis knowledge and more on the 5 minutes and 45 seconds it took to type Kohlschreiber!

Bastards wouldn't accept PEHK.

And I started missing at Robredo... No big shocker there... As he's generally pretty forgettable... So I don't feel so badly.
