Esti Ginzburg - 53%

Karen Mulder - 47%

 

#17 Petra Nemcova and Esti Ginzburg will face each other in Round 2 of the Main Draw.

 

My spin: Petra advanced in a completely expected result, and the other match between Esti and Karen was just as close as I'd expected, as well.  Going in, I had no idea who would win, and the vote was close the whole time polls were open.  In the end, Esti advanced and will have a tough matchup with Petra next.

 

More results coming tomorrow!

#8 Veronica Varekova and Isabeli Fontana will face each other in Round 2 of the Main Draw.

 

My spin: Both results were expected, but I was interested in just how many votes Michelle Lombardo would have captured against Veronica Varekova.  Tough matchup for Michelle, who I think is very hot.  Good run for her, advancing this far!

 

More results coming tomorrow!

#24 Tyra Banks and Chandra North will face each other in Round 2 of the Main Draw.

 

My spin: Estelle and Chandra were very close throughout, while Tyra won in a runaway.  It will be very interesting to see if Tyra is challenged in Round 2.  I think she will be, since Chandra is some tough competition.

A quarter of the Round 1 matches have completed, so I thought I'd post a recap of where we are.

 

Here's a look at the latest bracket:

 

U1382615017135795_1.jpg

 

The interesting thing to me about the bracket so far is that only one seeded model has lost, and that one was Angie Everhart falling to Cindy Crawford, who isn't exactly a slouch!  So, the seeded models have held their own so far.  The other interesting thing is if you break up the results into 2 groups of 8 models each.  One model from each of those groups will end up in the quarterfinals (the final 8 of the whole tournament).  One of those groups is stacked with supermodels, and the other is more wide open.

 

Take, for example, the first 8 advancing models in the bracket, one of which will emerge to the quarterfinals of the tourney:

 

D1382615900139131_1.jpg

 

This little "bracket pod" has Kathy Ireland, Cindy Crawford, Laetitia Casta, Marisa Miller, and Petra Nemcova.  All of them are huge names and capable of advancing, but only one of them will!  The pod is rounded out with Esti Ginzburg, Chrissy Teigen, and Lujan Fernandez, who are all hot models in their own right.  But, up against the supermodels in this pod, it's hard to imagine that they'll advance very far. 

 

Compare that to the other "bracket pod" that has been settled so far:

 

D1382615900139131_2.jpg

 

This one doesn't have the mega names of the previous example, but it is probably even more unpredictable.  I can realistically see almost any one of the 8 models ultimately advancing from this group.

 

So, anyway...

 

The matches below are still in progress, with more being added each day, of course.  All matches, including those already finished, can be found in this thread; or all of them are on this page: Matches

 

So, vote if you haven't already done so!

Josie Maran - 61%

 

#4 Christie Brinkley and Josie Maran will face each other in Round 2 of the Main Draw.

 

My spin: Christie was very nearly knocked off by a qualifier, which was very surprising to me.  So, there's reason to expect that she'll be tested against the very hot Josie Maran in Round 2.

 

More results coming tomorrow!

Latest results:

 

#20 Jessica White - 43%

Kristy Hinze - 57%

 

Manon Von Gerkan - 52%

Naomi Campbell - 48%

 

Kristy Hinze and Manon Von Gerkan will face each other in Round 2 of the Main Draw.

 

My spin: Kristy becomes just the second qualifier to knock off a seeded model, as she sent Jessica to the exit early.  Manon's victory was also impressive, as she knocked off a bonafide supermodel.  That sets up an unpredictable Round 2 matchup between Kristy and Manon.  I'm giving the edge to Kristy to continue her improbable run through the bracket.

 

More results coming tomorrow!

Nina Agdal - 82%

May Andersen - 18%

 

#5 Daniela Pestova and Nina Agdal will face each other in Round 2 of the Main Draw.

 

My spin: Daniela and Nina both advanced very easily to the second round, despite facing formidable competition.  This sets up a huge matchup in Round 2, which I think could go either way.  Daniela is the favorite by rank, because of her many appearances in the SI Swimsuit Issue, but the only disadvantage Nina has is her tenure.  Simply put, Nina could quite possibly have a lengthy string of appearances like Daniela did, given enough time.  This one should be very interesting!

 

More results coming tomorrow!

Yay for Hannah :clap:

 

Honestly I was never a fan of Ana BB for SI and I think Hannah has a long SI-career ahead of her

 

I felt the same way about Ana Beatriz, actually.  Hannah got my vote for this one.  I think she has a chance to get past Fernanda next round, too.  After that, though, it'd be really tough: Daniela Pestova or Nina Agdal would await her.  Yikes.   :beating:
