Once again with the wimbledon? You do understand the difference between team tournaments and individual ones?

Let's put Federer, Nadal and Djokovic on one team to play other teams of 3 in tennis and call it Wimbledon. Now, do you really think that anyone will beat that team of 3? Even if one screws up and loses which in itself wouldn't happen in all reality, maybe only Djokovic, that team would still win. So why even have the tournament when you know what team will win. So the best players/team wins, right? We'll put Sharapova, Ivanovic, and V. Williams on a team as well. There's 2 teams. Mens team is #1 seeded, women's #2. Well, once again, why even play when it's highly unlikely that anyone will dent either team. So why have the tournament? Why not just have the best two seeded teams play?

Yes, INDIVIDUALS can be upset and then others can rise to the top. TEAMS in all reality wouldn't be upset nearly as easy. It'd take 3 individual upsets to beat a team. 1 upset is already unlikely.

That's your logic.
