| | Congratulations to
first-time winner, David, as this past season's Urshan Award winner. |
| | |
| | Congratulations too
to Jack as a silver medal winner, his seventh time making the list below. |
| | |
| | Points are based on a system that tracks wins and losses giving higher credit for higher courts. The
stats of subs don't count toward the points for each player. So whether you had a sub, or you served as a sub, those
points don't affect your season points results. [FYI, if you're really curious about this, I do have ratings and results
available that include "as-a-sub" results.] |
