PICK ‘EM SCORING UPDATES
Well, we made it! The 2023 World Championships in Fukuoka, Japan are finally complete. After 8 days of all-time entertaining races, it’s time to do our final check-in with the SwimSwam Pick ‘Em Contest. First of all, congratulations and thank you to everyone who participated in this Pick ‘Em Contest! Also, a big thank you Speedo for providing the daily prizes and grand prize for this contest!
Now, let’s get into it. The winner of Day 8 of the Pick ‘Ems is…it’s a tie! Just as was the case on Day 1 of the meet, Day 8 also saw two contestants, both of whom are eligible for prizes, finish at the top. Both “Grant Drukker” and “tallswede808” scored 90 points on the final day of the contest, putting them in a tie for 1st. Congratulations!
Here are the Day 8 scores:
That brings us to the end of the line. So, without further ado – the grand prize winner. A huge congratulations to “Andrew Tate TOP G,” you are the winner of the 2023 World Championship SwimSwam Pick ‘Em Contest! “Andrew Tate TOP G” was also the Day 2 winner, and had a very solid contest throughout the week, and they finished the contest with 389 points across all 8 days. A big Day 8, wherein they scored 76 points saw “Andrew Tate TOP G” rocket past “BairnOwl,” who was in the lead for majority of the contest. “BairnOwl” ended up in 2nd with 382 points.
Here are the final scores:
Once again, a huge thank you and congratulations to everyone who competed in the Pick ‘Ems. For those of you who won prizes, you will be receiving email correspondence on how to claim your prizes in the near future.
Just call me Chalmers considering how far behind I was at the halfway mark. 31st is by-far the best I’ve ever finished. And I can’t believe I was 3 points out of the daily prize on the last day!
It helps to know which swimmers are consistently good in big meets.
Kyle Chalmers, Kaylee, Titmus, Mollie O, Marchand, Kate Douglass are a few.
Grousset and Hafnaoui are two new names I’ve added to my list. I had them in the top 4 but not as winners.
Any others?
Healthy Milak, Bobby Finke, Ryan Murphy
I think there’s an American female distance swimmer who is considered fairly reliable
Woah, was not expecting to win a day. This was one of my worst PickEms
Tied for 355 !!!
I totally rock
Man the only thing I don’t like about this game is that the prizes are for North America only.
This game is so big, there are so many people participating from so many countries I’m sure swimswam is able to work something out to be able to give prizes for people playing from Europe or South America…at least the overall prize 🙏🏼
I wish I’d had a go at it. Not sure I’d have done that well, but it would have been fun.
For the Olympics I’m going with US to win silver in everything, can’t lose!
Gross username for the winner
haha
He’s in Romanian jail. Browsing internet is the only thing he can do.
Think of the decent men with that name. It must be awful.
