We’ve reached the final event of four straight tournaments in August on the PPA Tour, as the PPA Las Vegas Cup is being played at a new venue – Fontainebleau Las Vegas. This is the second event in a row held indoors with rollout courts.
This is a CUP event – worth 1,500 points compared with the normal 1,000 points in Open events – so more is at stake. Additionally, this is a Progressive Draw, which adds to the intrigue.

I am predicting Anna Leigh Waters wins another Triple Crown – she doesn’t like losing at the marquee events. This week we’ve added a section called “Upset Candidates” – players I think could get picked off a little earlier than expected.
