Calling all Turkeys, Razorbacks and Gashouse!!!  The Jakarta Tournament dates are set – May 1st, 2nd and 3rd.  Mark your calendars, tell the Mrs. and set aside some vacation days.  If you thought last year was enjoyable, boy oh boy oh boy, you won’t want to miss the tourney this year!!!  We have some special celebrating to do.

 

Wayne Lau is turning 50 this year and the party will be starting on April 30th!!

 

Eddie G is packing up the family and moving to London, so this will be his last tourney in Asia, at least for a while.

 

Ryan Callaway, the tall drink of water with the smooth swing, is closing up shop in Shekou and setting up camp in Oman. 

 

For those of you that haven’t been, the hotel is across from the 3 fields we play on, the pool is more than adequately stocked with Bintang, and the tournament is very well organized.  Similar to Manila and Bangkok there are teams in from all over Asia, with the exception of the active US military folks as they aren’t allowed to travel to Indonesia. 

 

The only downer is the nightlife.  Luckily a couple of the coaches have found some suitable watering holes so the evenings are at least bearable. 

 

All in – the best Tournament in Asia!!!
