ATRL's Greatest Athlete of All Time
Stage 1:
Submit a list of your top 10 athletes. First place receives ten points, second place receives nine points, etc. The top 8 athletes (by number of points accumulated) will advance to the second stage.
Stage 2:
The round-robin stage will include said 8 athletes. They will be separated into two groups (with the top place and second placing athletes of Stage 1 leading the respective groups), in a similar format to the Associated Tennis Player's World Tour Finals (available to watch--next match: Cilic to destroy Djokovic, Federer to destroy Nishikori, Murray and Raonic to mug in a mugfest). Two athletes will advance from each group, based on their win-loss record.
Quote:
e.g.
Group A -- R. Federer, A. Murray, M. Raonic, K. Nishikori
Federer faces Raonic, then Nishikori, then Murray. All players face each other eventually in a 1-1 contest.
End results:
Federer wins group 3-0
Nishikori, 2nd, 2-1
Murray, 3rd 1-2
Raonic (Bouchard of the WTF), 4th, 0-3
Federer, Nishikori advance.

Stage 3:
The top two players from each group will then be placed into their semifinal slots, and who ever wins will reach the finals. The winner of the final wins the rate.
Note 1: Chess and poker are not sports.
Note 2. If Roger Federer doesn't win, this rate should be disregarded (
