Our Butterfly May Upside Down Tournament drew 97 players which was a record high! We love this style of tournament as the prize money is flipped which means the U1000 event has the most prize money.
What other sport(s) can you have an 80 year old and 7 year old as Champions?

Roberto Morales (2021) – Champion U2150, despite losing a match in group RR play to Sara Gulabani (1758), Roberto found his stride making his way to the finals. He played a very tough opponent, Shiguang Lu, who was on “fire” in this event. Shiguang player Roberto very close send the match all the way to 11-9 in the 5th.
