We had a great weekend despite a deluge of rainfall on Saturday that was reminiscent of past Chico tournaments. Thanks to all the Open singles players who played hard all day and got us through to finals by the end of the day. Sunday blessed us with sunshine and more fun and great play. We had 75 competitors total, 20 novice players, and 13 women. Players represented Vancouver and Montreal Canada, Washington, Oregon, California, Montana, and Arizona. We had T.V. coverage Saturday and announcements over the radio. The U of O school paper will be doing an article also. Thanks to our sponsors for donating enough prizes for EVERYONE...
