And everyone's piling in on Barry already. Yay!!
neither did Hopkins
True, but he wouldn't be a 5 in that tournament either
wish Jay was TD for NAPA in 2014
Kudos to Jay for doing the thing we players know was right. Once that chart is posted no one should be allowed to screw with it. I was barred from future NAPA Nationals because I appropriately objected to this exact same thing.
Check out the attached photo which shows eight names out of twenty-one which were whited out and moved unilaterally to other brackets without notice or player agreement after this chart was posted for a few hours prior to the start of play(2014 Nationals).
One or eight, the brackets stand.
NAPA will go belly up within two years. To date, NAPA has not given my LO a promised reason for their actions against me.
Pay attention NAPA to how a real TD makes decisions.

yes Jay was, but I think it was to give the tournament some needed credibility and the same goes for Pat, which will keep the U S Open going forward. But I think Barry needs to let these guys run it as they see fit and you will have a straight forward event without the yearly B.S.

He must have gotten something to pull out. Even if he wasn't good enough to win he must have wanted to play or he wouldn't have shown up in the first place.

very true.....hate that jay left
Jay did not quit as the tournament director. He never "was" the tournament director if he lacked the authority to make this call. He was a figure head and Barry showed that pretty clearly when he put his foot down and told Jay how it was going to be.
Jay did not really have any choices to make, Barry going over his head and making the call effectively told Jay that he is not "really" the tournament director, he is a glorified ref and all of the big decisions will be made in accordance with what Barry wants.

I sent Jay a message a few months ago advising him to keep his head on a swivel. It is exactly circumstances like this that can tarnish your name forever. That Jay did what was necessary in order to remain above the fray is commendable. Otherwise,miss just another stain on the US open, and Barry personally.
I'm looking forward to Jay's comments about Barry's intransigence and if Jay got a chance to call him out, publicly.

Yeah Allen was pretty far off his game and his usual unusual stroke was unusually wonky today.
really?...
