Ok I'll start the Conversation... on the Zika Virus and the Miami area CDC travel advisory warnings issued this week.

I, like MANY have concerns about this issue and will not be making the trip for this event after paying for the entry due to the health concerns noted in the above articles and warning from the CDC and the WHO.
Over the past day or so I have tried to contact the Webmaster (Linda) for the Tornado Open here (http://www.thetornadoopen.com/contact-us/ ) regarding the change in travel plan and paid entry refund policy. I haven't yet heard back.
Since this issue has 'came up' SINCE the tournament was announced and the refund policy has a 8/1 deadline (http://www.thetornadoopen.com/terms-conditions/), what should be the way the event organizers to handle paid entry players (families) not willing to take the risk to go to this event?
If a refund isn't offered, my suggestion might be to offer a paid entry (credit) into a future event. Its Just a thought to lessen the burden this unforeseen 'natural disaster' has place on us all. Personally, for my group, I've had to cancel flights, car rental, hotels and a Cruise... It hasn't been a fun last 24 hours..

Randy,
Hopefully you live in the desert or parts of the country where mosquitos are sparse, otherwise you are likely to be bitten by a Zika mosquito in your backyard in a year or two.
Look at the CDC maps pertaining to expected US migration. Pretty self explanatory for us southerners. I have handed out plenty of repellant to my kids and other family. Spent about $175 to buy the good stuff when I looked at the map 3 months ago.
Good luck with the tournament Vivian. Will you be in Austin for the TX Open ?

To follow up this was the response about having to cancel the trip.... just a sec ago from FB messager on The Tornado Open...
"Randy I don't know what the issue is with the Zika virus everyone is still going and that isn't an issue for anyone. There is no refunds ...... Sorry but it's miles & miles away from us and it's not stopping anyone from going.
Just like the Olympics in Brazil everyone still went.."
