  etour is a single play, IT IS NOT UNLIMITED. So if you had intensions of buying the etour clubs might want to give that a second thought.

  I realized this way too late after already having started my round when I wanted to restart :D Didn't even cross my mind that it could possibly be a single play round with it running six weeks.

  You both beat me too it. I was just on my way to make a post about this.

  To all of you that have been asking for this... your wish has been granted.

   

  This makes it extremely interesting for sure. However, with that being said, Twitch will be boring as viewers will not be able to watch the Grinding over the next several weeks.

   

  Best of luck to everyone.

  As the biggest and most obnoxious whiner about unlimited qualifiers on this site I can say that i don't think anyone was asking for the eTour format change :D In the context of unlimited qualifier into bracket phase it made sense because you had to option of only playing one round if qualifying alone was good enough for you, but also the option of grinding dozens of attempts if you wanted a top seed.

  I LOVE THIS!!!

  This is how I feel competition should be. It is going to be fun to see how much of a difference it will make. I have no idea what the conditions will be, but I wouldn't be surprised if all players under 60 make the cut.

  Don't worry, I feel they'll realise the eff up, take it down and put up an unlimited one. Unfortunately...

  Maybe...maybe not.

  My thought is the amount of ball sales they will be losing out on. Which I have to agree with you on the mistake.

   

  However, many players have been very vocal about the Single Play qualifier over the years. You have to admit, being Single Play does add an extreme amount of pressure to the game.

  I agree with Brett... could quite possibly see a few new names on the leaderboard. Which could be why it was set up as Single Play.

  So it WAS a mistake being Single Play?

   

  I see it it now listed as Unlimited play?

  ...And the almost 150 players that played have had their scores removed. 😂🤣

  The Single Play still shows up in "My Tournaments", but I haven't tried playing and I am not sure what the point of playing would be since they started another tournament. I guess it can sit in "My Tournaments" with the bracket I was in that never filled up and had Cabo in it.

  I thought it seemed to good to be true.
