. . and a 1035 raiting, she must be getting close to that 1000 rating now. .
Tuff skitNot a great week for the Montgomerys. .
Kristen looked beat after a few holes but Holyn started to fall after she got the lead. .again
Super Lead card for MPO. . just to bad it starts LATE here in Sweden and i have to go up early- -
Kona's tournament came in at 923, one point off of her 924 rating. I won't stand this sort of slander on this forum. #mrsconsistent #konaskrushers #whirlybirdgirlie #transitionsmissusNot a great week for the Montgomerys. .

Kristen threw a 1017 tournament; is that good enough to finally break that glass ceiling?
Exciting to see the amount of Europeans making the effort to tour stateside, an indication that they are receiving financial support/incentives to make the trip worthwhile. Not necessarily profitable but they benefit from competing in the top tour and getting more global name recognition.Four of the top 10 FPO finishers are Europeans.
Europe's MPO are starting to sprinkle themselves into the top 10 with more frequency, as well. Semerad, Tamm, Antilla are playing pretty well, and I guess you really have to consider Simon as European.
I like the international flavor it gives the sport.
The title "World Champion" simply carries more meaning when you're competing against legitimate talent from around the world.
THE US tour is going too feel strange on the FPO side when all of the Europeans goes home for the EU stintExciting to see the amount of Europeans making the effort to tour stateside, an indication that they are receiving financial support/incentives to make the trip worthwhile. Not necessarily profitable but they benefit from competing in the top tour and getting more global name recognition.
The money really wasn't there for much of the international player field to tour the US until maybe 2021. Simon was one of/was the first to do an extended US tour (~2014) so its cool to see him still performing at a high level. He has benefitted from being in the US most of the years since and has familiarity with the longtime tour stops. Also being more selective in how many events he is competing in since returning from his various injuries keeps him fresh vs. on the road grinding out every event like he used to (and like most of the other Euro players have to).
