The Chase Begins

The NHC tour begins in earnest this weekend with the Fountain of Youth tournament. This is the first qualifying tourney of the year awarding 3 spots to the 2011 finals, excepting Red Rocks post Final tournament, and after a slow January and February almost every week through September will have a qualifying tournament. The Beat the Host has been an amusing pre-qualifying tournament over the past six weeks, but now real tour points are in play.
