Just spotted a slight problem in that Cauley and Whitehead both decided to turn pro before the tournament started, ruling them out of the low amateur comp. Luckily no one picked Cauley for low am, and the only Whitehead picker was CheeryCreps who also named a reserve (Henley), so we can bring him in. Doesn't affect anyone who named either player as one of their normal picks (I was the only one who did anyway).

Results up! Congratulations to ITFL for his second win on the bounce, and to lowercasemark who secures his Elite status with a major win. Next event will be the French Open, and in keeping with a tournament with a qualifying round, it'll be the next "open" event, where Choppers have the privilege of picking from the same categories as the Elite tour. And finally, don't forget that there's a re-rank coming in three events' time: after the Open Championship, the top 5 Choppers earn promotion to Elite status. And the bottom 5 non-exempt (i.e. this season's major winners) Elite players get relegated.
