My blue & white goggles removed assessment of the individual chances of winning a national championship:
RBY 75%
BARTLETT 10%
SVN 5%
HAINES 45%
FACUNDO 5%
STARROCI 80%
BROOKS 90%
DEAN 40%
KERK 50%
What is really odd is I view these percentages as quite low/conservative from a historical perspective. Granted I'll get a lot of arguments for our top 3 guys, I purposely tried to be objective and account for the unthinkable.
In contrast I would have put Zain, Nolf, & Bo in the 95%+ range, maybe even 100% in some years.
Yet despite this level of uncertainty at the individual level, I would have to put my confidence in a team championship this year at an all time high 95%, if not 100%.
Weird. Strange times, and granted the competition is a little off this year as well.
