Today’s results are in!Group 1Elle Macpherson (93.1%) defeated Vicky Howard (6.9%)Jessica Gomes (82.4%) defeated Carla Campbell (17.6%)Group 2Kathy Ireland (79.3%) defeated Barbara Minty (20.7%)Samantha Hoopes (62.1%) defeated Valeria Mazza (37.9%)Group 3Marisa Miller (96.9%) defeated Kathy Loghry (3.1%)Stephanie Seymour (60.7%) defeated Lily Aldridge (39.3%)My spin:Going in, there were really only two matches that I figured would be close (Hoopes/Mazza and Seymour/Aldridge). But, in each of them, we had ourselves a rather convincing winner, which makes their wins quite impressive considering their competition. I thought it was interesting to see the first two 2014 rookies in the tournament, and the fact that Lily Aldridge, one of the cover girls, lost her first match while fellow rookie Samantha Hoopes won hers. One can argue that Lily’s competition was stiffer, so I wonder how Samantha and Lily would fare if matched up directly. Alas, they’re in different groups this year, so that is unlikely to happen. Wait ’til next year, as the saying often goes.
What are your thoughts? Post and share them!The latest group tables/standings can be found here.Thanks for voting!

I noticed this entry at Amazon. Coming on October 28... Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Portfolio: Idyllic Shores
http://www.amazon.com/Sports-Illustrated-Swimsuit-Portfolio-Idyllic/dp/1618931210
Hopefully, they have some great non-retouched unreleased shots. They did a great job with not butchering photos with fake Photoshopping on the website and continue with Swim Daily, so I'm hopeful.

are you going to do the tournament again this year?
Yup!
I started it, in fact, but then had some health issues. But, I'm feeling better and will restart the competition in early September. See the thread here... the last post is the latest. http://www.bellazon.com/main/topic/53674-2014-si-swimsuit-model-tournament/

The second surprise was more dramatic, as the #220 ranked model, Annie Morton, pummeled #71 Lena Kansbod. I thought Lena might struggle here, but she did more than struggle. Lena will have a very difficult time advancing past the group stage after that performance.I think the way the wind is blowing her hair all into her face in the pic and how dated it looks and other things like the bad pose probably doesn't help. She might have done a little bit better, but maybe not much, with a different pic.
Yes, you're definitely correct there. The problem is that Lena has nearly all terrible poses and photos for SI, and the one I used in her match against Annie Morton was one was one of her best. SI's photographers did her no justice back then. So, maybe I shouldn't have been so surprised by the result, after all.

Today’s results:Group 4Cheryl Tiegs (81.8%) defeated Sheila Roscoe (18.2%)Caprice Bourret (51.9%) defeated Reka Ebergenyi (48.1%)Group 5Yamila Diaz-Rahi (62.9%) defeated Raica Oliveira (37.1%)Lauren Mellor (71.9%) defeated Rachel Roberts (28.1%)Group 6Daniela Pestova (87.1%) defeated Sabrina Barnett (12.9%)Samantha Hoopes (58.1%) defeated Kate Bock (41.9%)My spin: We saw some impressive performances by 2014 rookies Samantha Hoopes and Lauren Mellor, who both knocked off formidable opposition. Lauren’s win was especially impressive, as she got over 70% of the vote. It will be interesting to see if either Samantha or Lauren can challenge the favorites in each of their groups, Daniela Pestova & Yamila Diaz-Rahi.The latest group standings can be found here.Check back tomorrow for more results!

The first results of the 2014 competition are in. Here they are:Group 1Elle Macpherson (80.8%) defeated Patricia Velasquez (19.2%)Ehrinn Cummings (95.2%) defeated Kathy Loghry (4.8%)Group 2Kathy Ireland (88.1%) defeated Margaux Hemingway (11.9%)Amber Smith (64.1%) defeated Suzy Smith (35.9%)Group 3Marisa Miller (88.4%) defeated Kim Lemanton (11.6%)Annie Morton (75.0%) defeated Lena Kansbod (25.0%)My spin: There were only two surprises in this first batch of matches. First, I’m surprised that Suzy Smith got herself over 1/3 of the vote against Amber Smith. I thought Amber would have had an easier time than that. The second surprise was more dramatic, as the #220 ranked model, Annie Morton, pummeled #71 Lena Kansbod. I thought Lena might struggle here, but she did more than struggle. Lena will have a very difficult time advancing past the group stage after that performance.The latest group standings can be found here.Check back tomorrow for more results!
