Looks like the Nick Hyde Memorial didn't make the cut this year. I can guess why, but it might make someone upset. Dang it!
No Hall of Fame Classic either, even as an A-tier.
HOFC has never been an A-tier to my recollection. It has always been an every-odd-year NT except for 2018. It not being on the schedule for next year isn't much of a surprise.
On a different note, the distribution of A-tiers in the northeast is pretty frustrating. I don't think it's the PDGA's fault so much as the TDs choosing their dates, but that there isn't a pro A-tier in the northeast until mid-August is annoying. And then there is one practically every weekend, sometimes two, through October (plus an NT). I'm sure many of them are trying to snag some of the touring players while they're on the northeast swing (Maple Hill, Smuggs, Iron Hill). At some point, they're chasing ghosts though.
How about just one spring or early summer A-tier while the tour is out west? Odds are it would be better attended by the local/regional players (who won't have to cram it in with 3-4 others in a 6-7 week stretch) and just as well attended by the touring pros (who aren't likely to be there even if it were in the fall).

Very cool to see IOS# 100 as a 2-day A-tier, nice job Mike K.

Matt's not the most popular guy in the DFW area, is that what you're talking about?

No. The course just isn't the same.
