Missouri State Rep for USDGC standings

[John Chapman]

The Missouri representation for the USDGC is going to the Missouri resident who has the best average round rating for their best 8 rounds in Missouri tournaments.  (The Kansas City Wide Open is considered a Missouri tournament for these purposes, even though 2 of the rounds were played in Kansas. The Kan-U-Wyco tourney does NOT count for this.) George Smith and Nikko Locastro have already via other venues, so Fred Smith is the current leader. You MUST have 8 rounds in the Open divisions in these events to qualify:

Anyone with at least 4 rounds played already could still qualify if they played in the Mid-America Open (4 rounds in Columbia would give them at least 8 rounds total) The representative will be announced after the Mid-America Open.  I will include Worlds in next year's qualification, as Worlds happens too late this year, as we have to name the rep before August 1.
