Dates have also been set for the Premier League of Pool from Feb. 16-21 and the Florida Open (Aug 3-8).
The PLP finishes before the large Predator event in Las Vegas that runs from Feb. 23 to March 6. I could have sworn these two events conflicted when the 2027 PLP was first announced, but maybe Predator switched its dates.
Whatever the case, the PLP could have its strongest field in several years.
What we still don't know:
*Frazer said WNT wants another big event between the Florida Open and the second Arizona Open to lighten the travel load on players.
*Frazer has said she would like a another big WNT event in Texas aside from the presumptive return of the US open to Frisco. She did not specify if it would happen in 2027.
*No date has been set yet for the US Open. but Aug. 24-29 looks likely.
*WNT has not said if it will return to Vietnam for a Hanoi Open. There is a small ranking event in Ho Chi Minh City in November this year.
*WNT has not set a date for the World Pool Championship or given further indication of whether it will take place in 2026.
*WNT has not said if the World Cup of Pool will return. If it doesn't come back in 2027, might as well kill it. Predator is stealing its thunder.
*The Philippines Open will be back based on the original contract.
