  After a little consolation with a few players.  This tournament is going to be delayed to November.  Sorry.

   

  This tournament is by invite only.  It will be for the Top 50 players as ranked by Tall Ace Paul.  Rankings are available here Rankings .  If you are in the Top 50 you are welcome to join.  There will only be 50 spots and will take place after the finishing round of the NAC challenge. 

  The first two rounds will be stroke play 18 holes.  The first two rounds will be week 36 and 37 - 18 hole single play.  After this it will be a cut to the top 16.  It will be then be an 18 hole match play tournament where the 1 seed and 16 seed will face off and so forth.  

  The match play tournaments will take place over two weeks so expect to play four rounds in two weeks in this portion.

   I'll throw my hat in the ring. Last rankings put me at  #25, though I'm not quite sure I deserve to be that high.

  These ranking figures are based on every 18-hole, single-play, free-to-enter tournament this year to date.

  This tournament is invitational which mean the hosts could extend invitations to those outside the top 50 based on play.  I will look at how players have been performing and extend invitations to those who have had high finishes outside the single play tournaments.  Might even do so the winners of any other community organized tournament will get an automatic bid.  I am very fair and will not overlook the top players on this site.  I am working on the details and will start another post.  The tournament name will be changed to the World Masters Invitational since I am looking at adding a few hosts to help me with logistics and formatting.

  As a side note Lilmike24 I have a nice response from my friends that they would like to participate.  So be look forward to a much upgrade tournament coming in November. 

  Warmest Regards to all.
