Maui is obviously near the pinnacle and that was announced over a year in advance. Diamondhead classic was good as well. Hall of Fame Tourney in KC was good as well. Those were back-to-back-to-back years.
Last year's Vegas tourney was pretty bad. The Barclay's one we are going to this year looks maybe half a step better?
But yah, I don't know how hard it is to get into better tournaments. Maybe we tried super hard to get invited to a big tourney and didn't, maybe we didn't try. I have no idea. Just seems like last year and this year the quality of these tourneys will have fallen a great deal. The 8 team tournaments with winner and loser brackets seem like a much better chance to up the SOS than these Vegas and Brooklyn tournaments.
