Do they put a list of the players that are going to play up, and if so about how long before the event starts. Johnnyt

They have posted a list in the past but usually its about 7 days before it starts and its not complete until the last minute. The us open official site post's the list and Brady will probaly post it here.

I suppose the pricemoney will not be changed in last minute, like last year when 2nd was reduced from 25 000 $ to 20 000 $ without players knowing?

Anyway, good luck with one of the worlds best and most prestigous 9-ball tournaments!

I guess there are those who choose not to read all the tournament info where it says prize money based on 256 players. How many bye's and no shows/no payers did he have last year? I guess allen hopkins should pony up the other 940,000 bucks of that 1 million dollar 9ball tournament he advertisted for over a year. If the players wont even enter qualifyer's and pony up some of there own cash for that gig that says alot about them. Barry should have sent all the players home when 911 happen and said oh well but he hung in there and what did it get him.....20,000 is alot of money for 2nd place,even better that first place at the hopkins event and most any event out there.

Hello US Open Staff,

Is there a warm-up tournament this year? Last years 1-hole was good!
Hope you will have same kind a event this year. We are arriving at 16th of october to virginia.

Then my friend from Finland, Mr. Aki Heiskanen has paid the entry-fee but I cannot see him on the list?? Can u check that one....

Thanks.
