On the Sarah Ellerby wesbite it says the Tournament of Champions in November, does this mean that Sarah is actually playing in it? It just seems a bit strange becuase she isn't in the top 4 in the WPBA ranks....

Tournament of Champions
The Tournament of Champions (ladies) is only open to 4 ladies each year. Only winners of Classic Tour events are invited to the winner-take-all event.
In the event that there are less than 4 winners (for example, when Karen and Allison are the only 2 players that win events), then players are invited by rankings.
So far this year, only Allison and Karen are "qualified" for this year's Tournament of Champions. If another player wins the US Open in Albuquerque or the Cuetec Classic in Canada, then that player will also be entered into the TOC. If not, then they will go by rankings and Helena Thornfeldt and whoever is 4th (most likely Jeanette) at the time will be invited.
Whoever put Sarah's website up probably just copied the WPBA's calendar of events onto her website. Either that, or they have complete confidence that Sarah will win one of the events before the TOC. She is certainly capable of it!!!
Hope that clears things up!

Yes it does. Thanks!
Thank you
Gremlin,
Thank you for the picture! Where was that taken?
I look forward to playing Sarah in a WPBA event soon. Believe it or not, she and I have not yet drawn each other in a tournament. She is a tough competitor and a good friend, and I know that when we do eventually play, it will be an entertaining match....
Thanks for the support!
